HT Marine LCD GMDSS

Overview Features Accessories Technical Specification

Our HT849 intrinsically safe USTC approved, GMDSS portable, is MED certified and carries the essential Wheel Mark logo. For those requiring a full featured intrinsically safe GMDSS portable, with high visibility back-lit LCD, the HT849 is the most advanced GMDSS portable available.

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?
