Description

The DK120/90 is a battery operated underwater acoustic pulse generator (beacon / pinger) that is activated when the water switch is immersed in either fresh or salt water. Providing a minimum of 90 days of uninterrupted operation once activated, this beacon meets or exceeds all FAA requirements. This beacon can assist in location of CVR/FDR devices.

Features

  • Watertight aluminum case
  • Capable of operation at depths of up to 20,000 feet
  • Detectable at a range of 2000 to 4000 yards
  • Sustained pressure up to 8700 psi
  • Water switch actuation initiates beacon operation upon immersion in either fresh or salt water
  • The battery used to power the DK120/90 will sustain beacon operation for a minimum of 90 days 
  • Acoustic output of 160 dB with an operating frequency of 37.5 kHz
  • The water switch is part of a low current triggering circuit
  • The generated pulses are approximately 10 ms in duration, and occur about once per 1 second
