Support Home Kannad Ultima ELT Material Safety Datasheet Kannad Ultima-DT


Ultima-DT is a fixed Emergency Locator Transmitter – Distress Tracking type, designed to meet the ICAO GADSS ADT requirement which will be applicable in January 2023. Adaptable to any commercial aircraft, its trigger-in-flight capability detects imminent distress situations and automatically sends a secure 406 MHz distress signal including the accurate aircraft position.

ADVANTAGES

  • Accurate location

    The beacon’s location is determined through its embedded GNSS receiver, using both GPS and Galileo satellite constellations for faster signal detection and robust position acquisition.

  • Non-rechargeable lithium battery

    Ultima-DT combines the latest generation of lithium battery technology and a smart design, which enables the unit to comply with the latest FAA / EASA lithium battery requirements (DO-227A & (E)TSO-142b).

  • Compliant with the ADT regulation

    Ultima-DT autonomously transmits information from which a position can be determined at least once every minute when in a distress condition. As part of the GADSS ADT requirements, the information containing the aircraft location is available to the relevant authorities such as traffic services and SAR Regional Coordination Centers.

  • Trigger in-flight capability

    Activation is triggered through redundant ARINC429 inputs as soon as the aircraft faces a distress
    condition. The Ultima-DT can also be activated manually with a cockpit remote control panel. If the aircraft returns to a safe condition, a cancellation message is transmitted.

NEWS

  • Orolia’s New-Gen Distress Tracking Emergency Locator Transmitter First to Receive Certification from Cospas-Sarsat and European Union Safety Agency

    Orolia, the world leader in resilient positioning, navigation and timing, is the first company to receive certification from Cospas-Sarsat and the European Union Safety Agency for its new-generation distress tracking emergency locator transmitter, the ELT-DT.

  • Blog What You Need to Know About the GADSS Regulation

    Following several accidents where downed aircraft could not be located at all, or only after long and expensive search efforts, the Global Aeronautical Distress and Safety System (GADSS) recommendations were adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) in March 2016.
