Jotron Hydrostatic Release Unit for EPIRB’s

In an emergency situation the automatically activation of the EPIRB will dramatically facilitate the rescue operation and the possibility to save lives. The Jotron H20E is the most reliable hydrostatic release unit on the market and is used by most leading EPIRB manufactures.

The H20E is widely used for Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons (EPIRB). Should the vessel sink, the H20E, which is activated by increasing water pressure, automatically release the EPIRB. On reaching the surface the EPIRB starts to emit a signal of identification and position to a satellite. Instead of the rope sling a specially developed plastic bolt secures the radio beacon and will be cut when the unit is activated.

Important
Use only manufacturer approved replacement bolt (rod). The bolt should always be changed together with the release unit every two years. The Jotron H20E is made of glass fiber reinforced nylon, which means that it will not rust. The Jotron H20E needs no annual service, maintenance or spare parts. You simply install a new one every two years and dispose of the old one. Keeping the environment in mind, the old unit is 97% recyclable.

Simple handling procedures mean that storage costs are kept down to a minimum. With the H20E, installation is both easy and quick, greatly reducing your customers’ downtime ashore.
