TRON 60S EPIRB – Reliable Emergency Signaling When It Matters Most The TRON 60S EPIRB is a compact, float-free Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) developed for maximum reliability in maritime emergencies. Fully compliant with IMO SOLAS and GMDSS requirements, this beacon is trusted by commercial shipping fleets, fishing vessels, and offshore operators around the world. Product Description: Designed and manufactured by Jotron, the TRON 60S EPIRB transmits a 406 MHz signal via the COSPAS-SARSAT satellite system, instantly alerting global search and rescue services in the event of an emergency. It also emits a 121.5 MHz homing signal to guide rescue teams during the final stages of location. Compact and lightweight, the TRON 60S fits easily into lifeboats or can be installed on-deck using its float-free bracket, which automatically releases the beacon if submerged. While it does not include AIS or GPS as standard, it remains one of the most dependable EPIRBs for vessels that require a SOLAS-approved distress beacon with manual or automatic activation. Its battery offers a 10-year lifespan in standby mode and ensures at least 48 hours of continuous transmission once activated. The rugged housing is waterproof, corrosion-resistant, and built to perform in the harshest marine environments.
