BATTERY PACKS – EBC Authorized ELT Battery Packs

Authorized battery packs for all EBC, DEFT-1 and Sharc-7 ELTs

AUTHORIZED BATTERY PACKS FOR EBC EMERGENCY LOCATOR TRANSMITTERS

They work better because they’re made better.

The GS-21 and GS-52 are 9-volt alkaline battery packs. These packs are carefully assembled to maximize crash survivability and preserve cell power. New brand name cells are first tab-welded together and then entirely encapsulated in a non-hazardous epoxy. The potting material is added through a portion-controlled pouring process and totally covers the bottom, top, sides and spaces between the individual cells, virtually eliminating failure-causing air bubbles. All batteries must meet our rigid quality control standards. They are hand-inspected for air bubbles in the poured potting material. Finished batteries must pass through a size gauge measuring width, height and depth. They are further tested for proper voltage and visually inspected by the QC department. The GS-21 and GS-52 batteries are not merely power sources, but are integral parts of the entire ELT system.

GS-52

GS-46 Lithium Battery Pack – CALL

The GS-46 battery pack uses lithium manganese dioxide chemistry to provide the 5 watts of power mandated for 406 ELTs. It has a replacement life of 5 years. The individual battery cells are encapsulated in a wide temperature range silicone potting material. Our process ensures structural integrity, waterproofness, and protects the cells from environmental hazards.

The GS-46 battery pack can be easily installed in the field by opening the cover of the ELT, removing the old battery and connecting the new battery. Because of the lithium content these batteries are shipped as HAZMAT and must be discarded as HAZMAT.

These battery packs are approved under TSO-C126 and TSO-142.

Specifications

  • System: Non-rechargeable Lithium Manganese Dioxide
  • Size: 2.53″H x 1.42″W x 4.14″ L
  • Color: Blue
  • Weight: 1.2 lbs.
  • Voltage: 9.8 VDC, Red lead positive
  • Total Lithium Content: 10.2 grams
