The EBC 406HM meets the special needs of those who use night vision equipment or who want a direct/drop-in replacement for our EBC 302HM or EBC 502HM models. These ELTs are painted a non-reflective flat black as are the transmitters they replace. They have an integral antenna, therefore no external antenna is needed. They are installed in the cabin and so a Remote Control Monitor is not necessary. To meet the needs of our military or governmental users these ELTs transmit on three frequencies: 406.028, 121.5 and 243.0 MHz. A standard EBC406HM comes with a BB-12M bracket. For Apache helicopters there is another bracket – the BB-15M. Installation is easy because the EBC 406HM mounting bracket uses the same three-screw-hole configuration as our older models. Simply remove the older model ELT and mounting bracket and attach the new unit. The system comes with a transmitter, integral tape antenna, mounting bracket, and a battery pack. If the ELT is activated a built-in monitor emits a loud beeping tone and the LED flashes. The integral tape antenna allows the ELT to transmit a good signal when used either inside or outside the aircraft. Intended for military or civilian governmental use it has been designed with the newest technology. The EBC 406HM also incorporates the best and proven features that characterize all of EBC’s emergency locator transmitters. These transmitters have encapsulated electronics and battery packs to provide added protection against shock, moisture and other environmental hazards. The EBC 406HM uses our proven omnidirectional activation system. This system uses 2 omnidirectional switches mounted perpendicularly to each other.
