The PRO-5M is a marine emergency satellite radio buoy (EPIRB) transmitting on the international 406 MHz distress frequency, the channel monitored by the Cospas-Sarsat satellite search-and-rescue system. When activated, the buoy broadcasts a distress signal that allows rescue coordination centers to identify and locate the vessel.
Weighing 1.3 kg and rated for operation from -20 to +55 °C, the unit is built for the conditions of open-water service aboard fishing vessels, cargo ships and passenger craft. EPIRB carriage is mandatory for many vessel classes under international and national maritime safety rules, which makes this product a recurring procurement item for ship chandlers, fleet operators and marine safety equipment dealers — beacons are bought for new vessels, replacements and battery-expiry renewals alike.
The wholesale price starts at 900 USD with a minimum order of two units. Buyers should verify the certification documents applicable to their flag state during purchase, as approval requirements vary by registry.
