🔍 Key Concepts

• SART (Search and Rescue Transponder) maintenance requirements under SOLAS • The typical service life of lithium emergency batteries in GMDSS (Global Maritime Distress and Safety System) equipment • The phrase "or after being used" on one-time emergency batteries

💭 Think About

• Think about how long high-reliability emergency batteries are usually certified for on SOLAS/GMDSS equipment like EPIRBs and SARTs—are they very short (2–3 years), moderate, or longer? • Compare the answer choices with the normal survey/inspection cycle for SOLAS ships. Which interval lines up well with planned yard periods and safety equipment servicing? • Ask yourself: once a SART has been activated in a real emergency, should the same battery be trusted again, or should it be replaced regardless of age?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check typical SOLAS SART battery life as stated on the equipment type-approval plate or manual. • Verify whether GMDSS emergency batteries are usually specified as "X years or after first use, whichever comes first". • Eliminate any options that seem unrealistically short or long compared to common emergency battery replacement schedules on SOLAS vessels.
