SAILOR 6222 VHF DSC CLASS A

The new SAILOR 6222 VHF DSC continues the SAILOR tradition of setting new standards for GMDSS VHF design. It is a vital tool for daily operation and has been developed for the harsh maritime environment as part of the innovative SAILOR 6000 Series. It is based on the same foundation of high reliability, ease-of-use and leading-edge functionality that has positioned SAILOR as the top name in maritime VHFs.

SAILOR 6222 VHF provides flexibility through straightforward installation, either as part of a GMDSS console or on its own. As a result of improved, high performance and innovative, easy-to-use functionality the radio offers important operational enhancements. It introduces several new hardware and software improvements, including the improved SAILOR Replay functionality. The highly advanced 3.2” QVA display ensures the information can be read regardless of the light conditions on the bridge – day or night. The text can be displayed as white on black background, and as black on white background, to provide the optimal reading condition in daylight. Red backlight protects the night vision of the user.

  • Unique SAILOR Replay (240 sec.) of incoming communication
  • High quality display – perfect night and day vision
  • Powerful 6W loudspeaker
  • Intuitive and easy to operate menu structure
  • Large tactile buttons and wheelknobs for easy operation
  • The popular and reliable SAILOR handset
  • ThraneLINK

The SAILOR 6222 VHF is the first ever DSC Class A to be rated waterproof to IPx6 and IPx8, making it possible to install on open workboats or outside deck areas.

The new SAILOR 6222 VHF complies with the new DSC spec. 493-13 for VHF DSC Class A, which is part of the mandatory requirements for SOLAS vessels, and many national GMDSS requirements. In addition to its role as part of GMDSS it is one of the most advanced, high quality and powerful VHF radios available today, it is suited to a wide variety of maritime operational communications on board fishing vessels, merchant, offshore ships and workboats.

A broad portfolio of high quality accessories is available for the SAILOR 6222 VHF, which improve its installation flexibility and operational scope. Handset, hand microphones, SAILOR 6204 Control Speaker Microphone for bridge wing operation, as well as Alarm Panels and external loudspeakers, enable multiple users in different locations to utilize the high performance GMDSS Communication system.
