1.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
TronSART20isemergencyequipmentconsistingof:1.TronSART20radartransponder.2.Mountingropeforliferafts/lifeboats.
The9GHzradartranspondertypeTronSART20isdevelopedbyJotronAStomeettherulesandregulationsforuseonvesselsandliferaftsinthemaritimeservice.TronSART20meetsthespecificationsfor9GHzradartranspondersforuseinsearchandrescueoperationsatsea.
TheoperatingrangeoftheTronSART20isupto30nauticalmiles,dependingontheheightoftheelectronicunitandtheradarheightofthesearchandres-cueunit(seaorairborne).Witharadarheightof20mandtheTronSART20placed at 1m above sea level, the range will be up to 10 nautical miles. TronSART20isbuoyant,howevertoobtainmaximumperformancethetranspondershouldbeplaced inaverticalpositionandashighupaspossible inordertoachievemaximumcoverage.Severalmountingbracketsandmountingaidsareavailabletoensurecorrectmountinganduseoftheradartransponder.
The purpose of the Tron SART20 is to perform a secondary alarm when se-archandrescueunitsaresearchingforaliferaft/lifeboatindistress.TheTronSART20willhelptheunitstopinpointexactlywherethedistressedboatislo-catedinalargerarea.Thisisdonewiththehelpoftheradaronthesearchingshiporhelicopter.
WhentheTronSART20isinterrogated(hit)byaradarsignal,itwillimmediatelystart to transmit a number of sweeps covering the complete maritime 3 cmradarband.Thesesweepsaredetectedontheradarscreenandareusedtonavigatedirectlytowardsthedistressedliferaft,fordetailsonradardisplayseechapter5.3.Maximumdistancetoashipwillnormallybeabout10nmandap-proximately30nmtoahelicopter,dependentonthehelicoptersaltitude.Thetransponderwillnotgiveanyalarmsfurtherawaythanthis.
The primary alarm will usually be an Emergency Position Indicating RadioBeacon(EPIRB)ordistresscallonVHF/HF-manualorviadigitalselcall.
TheTronSART20shouldbeactivatedimmediatelyafteractivationoftheEPIRBorbyinstructionfromtherescuecontrolcentre.
