Our HT948 intrinsically safe ATEX approved, GMDSS portable, is MED certified and carries the essential Wheel Mark logo. For those requiring an entry level intrinsically safe GMDSS portable, with a no compromise build specification, the HT948 is the most cost effective solution.
From an established generation of commercial grade products the HT Series 2.0 is designed to endure any emergency situation in the most hostile marine environment. Not just compliant with MIL-STD 810C/D/E/F, the HT Series GMDSS also exceeds the MED's IP67 submersibility requirement (1m - 30 minutes). Our GMDSS portables are uniquely approved to IP68 (5m - 1 hour).
Entel is the first manufacturer to offer a solution to ship owners who, quite rightly, have been demanding an intrinsically safe approved GMDSS portable for their hazardous cargo vessels. It is mandatory, by law, for hazardous cargo vessels to use intrinsically safe radios. Why should their GMDSS portables be any different?
Entel is the first manufacturer to offer the superior IP68 specification, whereby we ourselves determine at what depth and for how long our equipment must remain waterproof. Not content with just the standard IP67 entry-level (1 metre for 30 minutes) Entel's IP68 HT series is certified as waterproof-submersible to an unprecedented depth of 5 metres for 60 minutes.
Aware that the smallest tolerances of case size and material variation alone could compromise your radio's waterproof integrity, uniquely, each individual Entel portable is tested on a custom-built air pressure test-jig to ensure it meets the exacting high standards we have set for ourselves.
Meeting MIL-STD 810C/D/E/F commercial grade construction for tough, enduring performance, the Entel's HT and HX series 2.0 portables conform to stringent standards, enabling them to withstand the everyday rigours of shock, vibration and the corrosive effects of dust and moisture, ensuring many years of trouble free use in the most hostile environments.
All Entel portables come with the latest intelligent Lithium-Ion battery technology as standard. Whichever model you choose, these batteries will count the number of completed charge cycles, which on LCD variants, if dealer enabled, can be displayed when you power-on your radio.
For your convenience it will even alert you to imminent battery life expiration. Another advantage of Lithium-Ion battery technology is the way it maximizes duty cycles, while the elimination of memory effect means there is no need to fully discharge the cells before recharging. Therefore you are assured a full duty cycle each and every time you take your radio from its charger.
Entel proposes to continuously add/upgrade features to its range of radios. Using Flash Upgrade technology your radios can be upgraded by your Dealer at any time.
A completely redesigned accessory connector, when secured to the portable, is designed to withstand any amount of punishment from dropping to careless misuse. Furthermore, the securing bolt incorporates a shearing point to protect the connector.
When you do eventually use almost all the charge in your battery your radio will conveniently let you know it is time to change or recharge your battery.
When you attach a VOX enabled audio accessory you can operate totally hands free. All you need to do is talk and your Entel radio will automatically transmit for you.
Whichever model you choose, these batteries will count the number of completed charge cycles, which on LCD variants, if dealer enabled, can be displayed when you power-on your radio. For your convenience it will even alert you to imminent battery life expiration. If you opt for a system of non-display portables then we recommend that you have at least one model with a display in order to take advantage of this unique feature.
