Discover the new ACR GlobalFix V6 EPIRB, an unrivaled Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacon, optimized for both recreational mariners and commercial sailors.

Technological Brilliance at Sea

This cutting-edge beacon is equipped with High-tech Return Link Service (RLS) that brings peace of mind to users by confirming a successful distress message transmission.

Whether you're coastal cruising, making offshore passages, or navigating the vastness of the ocean, the GlobalFix V6 stands as your steadfast safety companion.

Be Found. Everywhere.

The beacon boasts a stellar accuracy by harnessing the combined power of GNSS (GPS, Galileo, and Glonass) networks. Upon activation, it relays an accurate GPIRB position within 100 meters, using the global Cospas Sarsat search and rescue satellite network. Ground stations then decode the transmitted information, aiding in strategizing a swift rescue operation.

With the Return Link Service (RLS), users are reassured of their distress signal’s reception. A flashing blue light acts as a beacon of hope, indicating that the distress call has been acknowledged, and rescue operations are underway.
