The MicroPLB™ is the smallest and lightest weight PLB in the world and has been in use by US Government Agencies for over 10 years. It is designed and manufactured as a premium grade PLB and specifically for the individual that desires a higher level of equipment reliability than normal consumer grade products. If one’s interested in the best quality of equipment at a reasonable price, then the MicroPLB™ is the unit of choice.
There are four types of MicroPLB™'s certified by the international C/S (COSPAS SARSAT) consortium, including standard units certified for the C/S required 24 hour minimum operating time, and extended life units certified for 48 hours minimum operating time. Some types have internal GPS receivers, while others accept data from external (user supplied) GPS receivers. Key attributes of these MicroPLB™s are listed below:
