Product description |
 |
The SAILOR TT-3000 LRIT is a stand-alone LRIT solution that fully
meets the performance standard for LRIT as described in document
MSC81/210 and is separated from other services such as GMDSS
or SSAS.
It is an easy-to-install fit-and-forget system, which does not even
require a crew interface. The only requirement is power and as the
entire package consists of just three parts:
- Mini-C transceiver
- Connection cable (20/50m)
- Pole mount
The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has adopted an
amendment to Chapter V of the International Convention for the
Safety of Life at Sea 1974 (SOLAS), which introduces new
mandatory position reporting obligations for SOLAS ships.
It is called Long Range Identification and Tracking (LRIT) and requires
vessels to automatically transmit identity and position with date/time
at 6-hour intervals.
LRIT came into force on January 1st 2008 with compliance required
by December 31st 2008.
Vessels required to comply are:
- Passenger ships, including high-speed craft
- Cargo ships, including high-speed craft, of 300 gross tonnage and
upwards
- Mobile offshore drilling units
