NAVTEX TRANSMITTERS
SCALABLE WORLDWIDE INSTALLATIONS
The Danphone NAVTEX transmitter is developed and produced at Danphone's factory. It transmits NAVTEX messages in any local language on 490 kHz and 518 kHz. In case of reverse power fault, the transmitter continues to send messages by automatically reducing forward power to a safe level.
