In aviation equipment, project progress is subject to the approval and reviews of the authority; in this context, following the PDR, there are CDR (Critical Design Review), TRR (Test Readiness Review), and QR (Qualification Review) milestones. With the completion of the PDR milestone, the features and capabilities to be provided in the Pharus ELT Didyma have been finalized.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Pharus ELT Didyma is a Portable Type Class-1 Emergency Locator Transmitter. In other words, it is an Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT) device that can be detached and carried by the aircraft crew, suitable for portable use, capable of operating between -40\u00b0C and +55\u00b0C, and can be activated both manually and automatically.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Automatic activation will be provided in the following scenarios:<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table aligncenter\">\n<table class=\"has-fixed-layout\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>In the flight direction<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">&gt;6G acceleration<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Other than the flight direction<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">&gt;12.5G acceleration<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">As mentioned earlier in the \u201cPharus ELT Didyma\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/pharus-tech.com\/en\/2024\/12\/12\/pharus-elt-didyma\/\">article<\/a>, existing ELTs around the world have a false alarm rate of up to 90%. This problem results in wasted time and financial costs for Cospas-Sarsat Mission Control Centre (MCC) operations worldwide. For the Pharus ELT Didyma, it has been agreed to include a technical feature that will minimize the false alarm issue: if an optional +28VDC external power supply from the aircraft is connected to the ELT, it will continuously run an \u201cEmbedded Optional Monitoring Circuit\u201d that evaluates acceleration and crash existence in parallel. This circuit does not draw power from the ELT\u2019s battery; when powered by the aircraft, it examines whether a real accident has occurred and prevents false alarms in cases of hard landing, hard takeoff, and turbulence. In this regard, the design team anticipates that the Pharus ELT Didyma will be certified as the most modern and reliable ELT equipment.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Another finalized technical feature of the Pharus ELT Didyma is its practical, detachable battery module. This enables a more convenient and faster battery replacement process in battery change and fault detection scenarios. Without sending the device back to the factory or returning it to the manufacturer, any maintenance technician trained by Pharus Tech will be able to replace the battery in as little as 10 minutes, without any intervention to the internal structure of the ELT equipment.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8173 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/pharus-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Picture2-1-300x259.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"259\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pharus-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Picture2-1-300x259.png 300w, https:\/\/pharus-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Picture2-1-58x50.png 58w, https:\/\/pharus-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Picture2-1-50x43.png 50w, https:\/\/pharus-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Picture2-1-600x518.png 600w, https:\/\/pharus-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Picture2-1.png 628w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Designed to suit the operational scenarios of many existing air platforms worldwide, the Pharus ELT Didyma is being developed to meet the following environmental endurance standards:<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\">\n<table class=\"has-fixed-layout\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Operating Altitude<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\n<p class=\"p1\">Maximum 25.000 ft<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Operating Temperature<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">-40 to +55 \u00b0C<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Survival Temperature<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">-40 to +85 \u00b0C<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Vibration<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">RTCA\/DO-160G: Section 8.2 \u2013 Cat.
