Bluetraker Installations on Polar Pioneer Expedition Ship in Antarctica
BlueTrakerŪ Arctic and SSAS Arctic products have been installed on Polar Pioneer expedition ship, operated by the Australian cruise company Aurora Expeditions.
- (1888PressRelease) January 24, 2016 - Slovenia - As the weather patterns in the Antarctic region are primarily dominated by the succession of depressions passing continually through the Drake Passage, there are significant variations in the weather conditions that need to be encountered. It is critical that the safety of expedition ships is ensured in case of unexpected and dangerous weather conditions in the region.
To provide better security mechanism for unpredictable weather situations over Antarctic region, Polar Pioneer expedition ship has been equipped with BlueTrakerŪ Arctic transponder, to enable daily automatic location reporting via Iridium Satellite network and BlueTrakerŪ SSAS Arctic device, providing IMO mandatory Alert Button functionality to send a rescue request message via Iridium Satellite network in case of life threatening situations.
Both devices are equipped with Arctic upgrade kit and offering pole-to-pole signal coverage.
Optional Arctic kit upgrade was embedded into housing of both devices, allowing terminals to survive under Earth's Polar region conditions.
BlueTrakerŪ Arctic terminals enable operation in the extreme cold environments of Arctic and Antarctic seas. Both terminals resist accelerated cooling in extreme environments, successfully battling the effect of arctic winds on exposed electronic equipment.
