PURPOSE:
To insure continued reliability of your ELT, it must be inspected for damage and wear
which could be caused by age, exposed elements, vibrations, etc. Even the best
designed equipment, if not properly maintained and cared for, will eventually fail.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
The following inspections must be performed, a minimum of one time every year:
3.1.1
Secure Inspection: Inspect the ELT Main Unit and Mounting Tray to insure
all fasteners and mechanical assemblies are secure.
3.1.2
Corrosion Inspection for Coaxial Cable: Inspect the Coaxial Cable
connecting the ELT Main Unit to the Antenna for cuts or abrasions on its outer jacket.
Disconnect the BNC connectors on each end. Examine both the BNC connectors and
the mating plug on the Antenna and the ELT Main Unit for any signs of corrosion.
3.1.3
Corrosion Inspection for Remote Wiring Modular Cable: Inspect the
Remote Wiring Modular Cable, connecting the ELT Main Unit to the Remote Unit of
signs of wear or abrasion on its outer jacket. Remove the Modular Connecting Cable
and inspect and jack and plug assembly for corrosion.
3.1.4
Expiration Date Check: Check the expiration date of the ELT Main Unit
and the Remote Unit Batteries. Replace if necessary.
3.1.5
Battery Leakage Check: Disassemble the ELT to inspect the Battery
Compartment for signs of corrosion or battery leakage. If any battery leakage is
present, the battery Assembly must be replaced. The Battery useful life is 5 years.
3.1.6
Operational Test: After completing the above inspections, a Functional Test
as described in Paragraph 2.3 must be performed to verify proper operation.
3.1.7.1 G-Switch Check: Ensure that the Main Switch on the ELT main unit must
be selected at “ARM: position at all times. Activate the ELT using applied force. The
direction for mounting and force activation is indicated on the ELT. The AK-451-
(AF)(AP) ELT can be activated by using a rapid forward (throwing) motion coupled
