5.2 Change of ownership
If the ownership of the EPIRB is transferred or a change of vessel occurs,
the EPIRB must be recoded and re-registered on the new owner in
accordance with local rules.
5.3 Installation
The EPIRB should be installed in a location that meets the following
requirements:
•
The EPIRB should, with greatest possible probability, float-free
and avoid being caught in railings, superstructure, etc., if the
ship sinks.
•
Do not install the bracket near strong magnetic fields that
could activate the EPIRB.
•
The EPIRB should be located so that it may be easily released
manually and brought to the survival craft by one person. It
should therefore not be mounted in a radar mast or any other
places which can only be reached by a vertical ladder.
•
The bracket should, if possible, be installed in a position that
will provide as clear a view of the sky as is practical, orientated
to facilitate satellite reception.
•
Do not install or operate the EPIRB in a location subject to high
intensity RF fields. (e.g Radar or communications antennas).
•
Be especially aware of interference from shipboard L band
transceiver sources such as Inmarsat Fleet Broadband. The
emitted signals from such sources are very strong and may
influence the GNSS position reception.
The location should be well protected from environmental conditions such
as direct sea-spray, chemicals, oil, exhaust and vibrations. - see more
detailed information in chapter 4.10 of IMO COMSAR/Circ.32 regarding
“Harmonization of GMDSS requirements for radio installations onboard
SOLAS ships”.
