BlueTraker® LRIT Arctic

The BlueTraker® LRIT Arctic is a purpose-built Arctic transponder engineered for long-range identification and tracking (LRIT) in the world’s harshest maritime environments. Featuring a unique dual-housing design with an external insulated enclosure, the system maintains full operational capability in extreme cold down to −50°C, ensuring uninterrupted compliance even in polar zones. The fully integrated unit combines GPS and Iridium antennas within a rugged enclosure, using Iridium’s efficient Short Burst Data (SBD) service for automatic position reporting (APR) across global sea areas, including the A4 polar regions.

This advanced LRIT solution is delivered as a complete plug-and-play package, simplifying above-deck installation with all required cables and mounting hardware. Designed to withstand the mechanical and environmental stresses of Arctic and Antarctic operations, the BlueTraker® LRIT Arctic ensures cost-effective, reliable connectivity for research vessels, ice-class ships, and commercial fleets operating at the edge of the globe. Its resilient architecture and low-power design safeguard both compliance and continuous tracking under the most demanding maritime conditions.
