Original replacement battery for your Pathfinder3 SART
This is the original ACR replacement battery for the Pathfinder3 SART. A SART is the radar transponder that makes your liferaft visible on the radar screen of approaching vessels. Without a valid battery, it will not function, regardless of how good the device looks otherwise.
The Pathfinder3 is the predecessor to the current Pathfinder PRO. The battery is still readily available, allowing existing installations to remain in service. The replacement should be performed by a qualified electronics technician with the proper tools. This is not just a formality: a SART is certified safety equipment that must be functionally tested again after maintenance.
Why choose the Pathfinder3 battery?
Original ACR part: the battery designed for the Pathfinder3
Keeps your equipment valid: an expired battery date means rejection during inspection
Replacement by a professional: this must be done by a qualified electronics technician
Cheaper than new: a battery change costs a fraction of a new SART
Who is this product for?
Intended for vessels with a standard ACR Pathfinder3 SART. These are typically merchant vessels, fishing boats, tugs, and charter vessels covered under GMDSS.

What are the benefits for you?
Your SART is fully operational again: with full standby and transmission time
Ready for inspection: a valid battery date is required for your certification
No transport restrictions: unlike the NH version, this is not classified as hazardous material
Cheaper than a new SART: replacing only the consumable part
