Commercial Aviation

Today, Safran is shaping the future of aviation by offering a wide selection of search and rescue solutions compliant to latest standards for a variety of commercial aviation missions.

Defining the Future

Safran is a leading contributor in the design, development and deployment of the aviation industry’s next generation emergency management system known as GADSS (Global Aeronautical Distress Safety System). To allow operators to comply with the GADSS requirements for the autonomous tracking of aircraft in distress as well as other emerging aviation safety initiatives linked to lithium batteries, Safran has designed two ELT systems in the Ultima-DT and Ultima-S.

Ultima-DT

Ultima-DT

The 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.

Ultima-S

Ultima-S

Safran Ultima-S is a new generation of Survival Emergency Locator Transmitter – designed to be installed in the aircraft cabin or in the life rafts, and compliant with the latest FAA / EASA lithium battery requirements (DO-227A & (E)TSO-142b)

Integra ER (N)

Integra ER (N)

The Integra ELT offers the highest level of resiliency through an innovative backup antenna design. Operating independently of the aircraft, the back-up antenna will transmit your position through the 406 MHz frequency to the Cospas-Sarsat search and rescue satellites.  This version is the Extended Range (ER-N) of the Integra AF ER which includes the ARINC e-nav module.
