DUKANE SEACOM DK180 Silver TSO-C200a & TSO-C142a 8.8 Khz 90-Day Low Frequency Underwater Acoustic Beacon

Dukane Seacom’s DK180 is designed and certified to meet the newly developed standards FAA TSO-C200a, TSO-C142a.
The DK180 also meets SAE-AS6254a minimum performance standard for Low-Frequency Underwater Locator Devices (acoustic, self-powered) & the ARINC-677 installation standard.
In the event of an accident at sea, the DK180 emits a low-frequency signal (8.8kHz) in order to provide an extended detection range in locating the submerged aircraft. The beacon transmits for a minimum of 90 days and acts as a supplement to the existing Underwater Locating Devices (ULD) which are attached directly to the flight and data recorders.
