Cospas-Sarsat type approval is contingent on the use of original equipment battery packs in a beacon. Therefore, Cospas-Sarsat recommends that beacon owners always use original equipment battery packs which have been approved as a part of the original Cospas-Sarsat beacon approval and as provided either by a beacon manufacturer or one of their approved service centres. Certain aftermarket replacement battery packs that are not approved by the beacon manufacturer have been shown to be of inferior quality and may result in safety risk and/or the failure of the beacon to function properly in a distress situation.

 

L’approbation de type Cospas/Sarsat est conditionnée à l’utilisation du modèle original de batterie de la balise. En conséquence, Cospas-Sarsat recommande que les possesseurs de balises utilisent toujours le modèle original de batterie qui fait partie intégrante de l’approbation de type Cospas-Sarsat de la balise, et fournie soit par le fabricant de la balise, soit par un de ses centres de service agréé. Certaines batteries provenant de vendeurs de pièces de rechange et qui ne sont pas approuvées par le fabricant de balises, se sont révélées de mauvaise qualité et peuvent provoquer un risque pour la sécurité et/ou une défaillance de la balise lors de son utilisation en cas de situation de détresse.
