MFAIS circuits are AIS AtoN devices integrated inside our LED lanterns.
MFAIS
The AIS AtoN transponder provides automatic information on the GPS position of the marine aid to navigation (AtoN); thus making easy the location and identification of buoys, beacons and lighthouses on a vessel or an AIS Base Station chart.
Thanks to its minimum energy consumption, those circuits can be integrated with our self-powered lanterns.
Its modular construction allows its installation subsequently to the purchase of a MSM lantern.
MFAIS complies with IMO, IEC, ITU and IALA Standards.
