The McMurdo range of PLBs are designed to be carried by individuals
as a last resort safeguard against any life threatening incidents that
may occur anywhere in the world. Whether alone or within a group,
on holiday, at work, carrying out your sport or hobby, if you ever
find yourself in a remote area, land or sea, without any other form
of communication, the Fastfind PLB comes into its own.
Once
activated it transmits a unique identification signal via the
international search and rescue satellite system operated by COSPAS
SARSAT on 406 MHz.
The signal is then quickly passed to regional
search and rescue authorities who can rapidly get to the scene.
There are now four models within the McMurdo PLB range, the
Fastfind Max and Fastfind MaxG, which have a 48 hour battery
operation life and the new ultra compact Fast Find 200 and Fast Find
210 which will slip into the smallest pocket.
Fastfind PLB’s use the same advanced technology as McMurdo EPRIB’s,
miniaturised into a compact and rugged, palm sized unit. They are
designed to withstand the harshest of environments while still being
extremely easy to operate and small enough to carry with you at
all times.
Fast Find 200/210 PLB
FAST FIND is the most versatile 406
MHz emergency location beacon
available. It is waterproof to 10 metres,
only 106mm long and weighs just
150g. It will slip into the smallest
pocket and users can be confident of
being able to alert professional search
and rescue services if they are unlucky
enough to encounter life threatening
situations, even in the most remote
parts of the world.
FAST FIND complies with tough
international standards. It operates on
the global COSPAS SARSAT 406MHz
search and rescue satellite communication
system. The system is supported by
international government search and
rescue authorities around the world, so a
call for help will be acted upon and fast.

Fastfind Max/MaxG PLB
The Fastfind Max and MaxG bring added
endurance to safety with 48 hour operational
battery life at temperatures as low as -20°C.
The battery packs have a five year storage life
and are easily user replaceable.
Both models have our unique discreet antenna
deployment system with simple three-stage,
manual operation to prevent any risk of
accidental or false activation. In its stored state,
the antenna is completely hidden from view
and fully protected against rough handling.
Once deployed, the antenna automatically
springs into the optimum position ready for use.
The Fastfind MaxG’s integral 16 channel GPS receiver gives a
typical positional accuracy of +/- 62 metres and new position
updates every 20 minutes, significantly reducing the normal search
area from a 28sq nm area, when given a clear view skyward.
MaxG also has visual indication of GPS position acquisition.
