ACR OLAS Exposure Series N2K

$509.99 USD $587.95

Product Description

Enhance your boating safety and experience with the OLAS Exposure Series N2K, a versatile device that functions as both a Man Overboard (MOB) alarm and a wireless engine kill switch. Seamlessly integrating with the NMEA 2000 network, the OLAS N2K ensures rapid and effective communication of MOB alerts across your vessel’s systems, significantly boosting the safety and responsiveness of your crew.

Comprehensive MOB Tracking and Management

The OLAS N2K is designed to cater to a variety of vessel sizes and crew requirements. Whether you own a large motor vessel, a sailing yacht, or a smaller motorboat, the OLAS N2K provides reliable MOB tracking:

  • Tracks up to 25 OLAS transmitters on vessels up to 100 feet in length
  • Ideal for large motor vessels and sailing yachts
  • Can also monitor a single tag on smaller motorboats, ensuring engine shutdown if the helm is lost overboard

Included OLAS T2 Transmitter

The package includes a rechargeable OLAS T2 transmitter, known for its durability and ease of use:

  • Waterproof and compact design
  • Rechargeable with over 7 days of run time on a single charge
  • Integrated vibration and light indicators for status awareness
  • Supplied with a wrist strap, neck lanyard, and USB charger
  • 2-hour charge time

Advanced Safety Features

Never Miss a Man Overboard Event

With the OLAS N2K, responding to a MOB situation is swift and reliable. The device automatically logs the MOB point of loss on your chart plotter, eliminating the need to rely on memory or manual logging. When a tag is lost and presumed overboard, multiple alerts are triggered simultaneously, ensuring maximum safety and awareness for all on board.

  • MOB PGN (127233) is issued into the NMEA 2000 network, triggering all connected MOB devices
  • AIS Safety Broadcast (PGN 129802) mimics EPIRB or SART messages with internal GPS location data for accurate MOB mark placement on chart plotters

Wireless Kill Switch for Enhanced Safety

The wireless kill switch feature of the OLAS N2K provides unparalleled safety benefits for any powerboat:

  • Operator Safety: Automatically shuts off the engine if the operator falls or is ejected from the vessel, preventing accidents and aiding rescue efforts
  • Emergency Stop: Allows immediate engine shutdown in critical situations like collisions, minimizing further damage or injury
  • Crew Protection: Equips passengers and crew members with tags that can also stop the engine when necessary
  • Regulatory Compliance: Meets boating authority requirements for kill switches, ensuring compliance and avoiding penalties

Seamless Installation and Integration

Installing the OLAS N2K is straightforward with its NMEA 2000 connection, allowing it to integrate smoothly into your vessel's existing network. Compatible with a wide range of chart plotters and multifunction displays, the OLAS N2K ensures that all alerts are easily viewable and actionable.

Customizable Tag Modes for Versatile Use

The OLAS N2K offers three distinct tag modes, allowing you to customize the device to fit your specific boating needs. These modes can be easily selected via the OLAS mobile app:

  • Default Mode: Suitable for larger motor and sailing vessels, triggering alerts for all crew members while simultaneously cutting off the engine to maintain vessel control
  • Crew Tag Mode: Ideal for crew and passengers on both motor and sail vessels, alerting remaining crew without shutting down the engine to facilitate immediate rescue operations
  • Helm Tag Mode: Designed for smaller motor vessels under 35 feet, acting as a kill cord that stops the engine if the tag moves beyond a customizable distance from the hub. This mode allows the user to depart and return without triggering MOB alerts and should not be used as a primary MOB system

Enhanced Safety with the OLAS Mobile App

The OLAS mobile app provides additional safety features to ensure comprehensive protection on the water:

  • Solo Mode: Enables automatic SOS messaging for inshore boaters or those on vessels without offshore connectivity, sending distress SMS with essential vessel information to predetermined emergency contacts
  • TrackBack and Last Seen Location: Generates direction arrows and distance records to guide rescuers back to the MOB location, displaying precise latitude and longitude for effective coordination
  • Automatic VHF Mayday Information: Creates a VHF script with vessel details and last seen location data, facilitating accurate and efficient Mayday calls to maximize rescue chances
