IP68 Portable AIS Base Station Rechargeable AIS Navigation Base Station

Streamlining Navigation Aid Testing and Inspection with a Patented, Rechargeable AIS Base Station

The DX081PB is a compact and portable AIS base station designed for manufacturers, engineering teams, and other users who need to test and monitor navigation aids (NAVAIDs) like AIS beacons and lights before installation or during inspections. Unlike traditional large AIS base stations, the DX081PB provides a practical solution for signal transmission and reception, ensuring the proper functionality and compliance of navigation equipment.

Ideal for channel inspections, the DX081PB enables users to receive AIS information from all beacons in a specific waterway simultaneously. This allows for targeted maintenance and precise fault identification, reducing the need for labor-intensive inspections and the need to approach each individual beacon or light by boat.

KEY ADVANTAGES

• Portable and Compact Design: Ideal for field use, the DX081PB is a small, lightweight unit, making it easy to carry and operate in various maritime environments.
• Real-Time Monitoring: The device connects to a PC port, enabling remote monitoring of navigation aids from shore, reducing labor costs and providing more precise management.
• Rechargeable and Efficient: Equipped with a built-in lithium battery, it provides up to 20hours of continuous operation on a single charge.
• Dual Functionality: The DX081PB can transmit and receive AIS signals, allowing for pre-installation testing and real-time operational monitoring of navigation lights and beacons.
• Patent-Pending Design: This portable base station offers innovative design features to ensure durability and reliability in harsh maritime conditions.
• Increased Efficiency: No need to board ships for inspections—DX081PB enables remote inspections of all the AIS-equipped navigation aids in a given area at once, facilitating targeted repairs and reducing downtime.
