ACR Electronics, a prominent provider of safety and survival technologies, is delighted to announce a strategic partnership with one of Europe’s largest airlines. This collaboration aims to introduce cutting-edge safety technology to the airline’s extensive fleet, headquartered in Cologne, Germany.

In a move to prioritize safety and compliance with the International Civil Aviation Organization’s (ICAO) 2023 Global Aeronautical Distress and Safety System (GADSS) initiative, the airline has selected the ARTEX ELT 5000 Distress Tracking (DT) system for its new build aircraft. The ARTEX ELT 5000 (DT) is a state-of-the-art emergency locator transmitter (ELT) designed to integrate in-flight tracking and post-flight localization capabilities into a single crash-resistant unit, thereby enhancing safety and meeting GADSS compliance.

“This partnership marks a significant milestone in our commitment to safety and innovation in air travel,” said Jeff Geraci, Vice President and General Manager for ARTEX. “We are thrilled to collaborate with one of Europe’s leading airlines to deploy our advanced ARTEX ELT 5000 (DT) system across their new fleet.”

Developed by ACR Electronics, the ARTEX ELT 5000 (DT) is poised to future-proof aircraft with its advanced distress signaling and tracking functionalities. By automatically transmitting distress messages along with the aircraft’s precise location in real-time, the ELT 5000 (DT) ensures prompt response times during emergencies, leveraging the COSPAS-SARSAT satellite network for effective monitoring and assistance.
