This is the original primary lithium battery for the ACR SR303 VHF radio, complete with a tamper-evident seal. As soon as you remove the seal and connect the battery, the device automatically starts up in GMDSS mode on channel 16.
Sealed emergency battery that remains demonstrably unused until the crucial moment
This is the original ACR primary lithium battery for the SR303 VHF radio. This is the primary lithium battery supplied by ACR with the SR303. It features a tamper-evident seal, ensuring there is no doubt during an inspection as to whether the emergency battery has ever been activated. As soon as you remove the seal and connect the battery, the radio automatically starts up in GMDSS mode on channel 16, with volume set to 8 and squelch set to 2.
A VHF radio that is part of your mandatory safety equipment is also checked for its battery expiry date during an inspection. If that date has passed, the device is no longer compliant, regardless of how well it otherwise functions. Therefore, include checking the date in your annual review of safety equipment.
Why choose the SR303 primary battery?
- Original ACR component: the battery designed specifically for the SR303
- Keeps your equipment valid: an expired battery date means failure during an inspection
- With tamper-evident seal: demonstrably unused until the moment it is needed
- Quickly resolved: order a single component instead of a complete new device
Who is this product for?
Intended for vessels with an ACR SR303 on board that is due for a battery replacement, and for shipping companies, shipyards, and service providers that maintain the safety equipment of a fleet.
What are the benefits for you?
- Your radio is fully operational again: with a new expiration date
- Ready for inspection: a valid battery date is part of your certification
- Cheaper than a new device: a battery replacement costs a fraction of a new VHF radio
- Original part: no alternative cells of unknown origin

Frequently asked questions
What is the purpose of the tamper-evident seal?
It shows whether the battery has ever been activated. If the seal is intact, the battery is unused. This avoids any discussion during an inspection or when taking over a vessel.
What happens when I connect the battery?
The radio turns on by itself and automatically enters GMDSS mode, with channel 16, volume at level 8, and squelch at 2. You do not need to configure anything.
