| This system operates on the latest Search and Rescue (SAR) frequency of 406.025 MHz in addition to 121.5 and 243 MHz. It comes ready to connect to the Artex ELT to NAV interface, which enables the ELT to transmit Latitude and Longitude data (P/N 455-6500). The system includes an ELT transmitter, LiMnO2 5-year Battery Pack, Mounting Bracket, Remote Switch, Horn/Buzzer, Coax Cables, High Speed Rod Antenna, Installation Hardware, and an Installation and Operation Manual. The antenna system is approved for aircraft operating speeds up to 350 knots. The C406-1 uses a single connector antenna and a single coax feed cable to accommodate all three frequencies. |

Specifications
- The Artex 455-5010 C406-2 ELT transmits on all 3 emergency frequencies (121.5/243.0 and 406 MHz.) The ELT automatically activates during a crash and transmits the standard swept tone on 121.5 and 243.0 MHz. It also transmits a 406 MHz encoded digital message to the Cospas/Sarsat satellite system, which allows for rapid identification and reduces Search and Rescue response time.
- The C406-2 has been tested to meet the rigorous requirements of TSO C126 including 500 G shock, 1000 pound crush as well as flame and vibration tests. The C406-2 is available for use with Artex’s low cost whip antennas, rod antenna, or a blade antenna and may be interfaced with the optional Artex ELT/NAV Interface enabling latitude and longitude data to be transmitted as part of the 406 MHz message. The C406-2 uses two coax cables to accommodate all three frequencies. The C406-2 ELT is available for fixed wing with a single-directional G-Switch.
