Scan and find: An avalanche transceiver of the latest generation. As the world’s first sensor-controlled avalanche scanner, the Ortovox S1 enables rescue situations to be solved in the shortest possible time.

The whole situation in the avalanche area can be quickly assessed at a glance on the large display. In case of multiple victims, the revolutionary sensor control can show the location of up to four people simultaneously in a clearly visible manner. The sensor acts as an aerial and the earth’s magnetic field as a reference in order to be able to depict the location of the victims exactly.

The guidance on the refined search takes you straight to the nearest victim, while the display is updated in real time. Once the first victim has been located, this signal can be deleted so that the search can immediately be continued.

When it comes to pinpointing, the most time-consuming part of the search, a completely new type of display once again helps to save valuable time: decreasing circles continue the intuitive operation. The S1 means that rescuing multiple victims is no longer just a job for the professionals.

The S1 features an illuminated display, an electronic compass, a temperature display and even a slope-measuring device. The S1 comes in a functional holster and offers additional options for professionals: for example an extensive check function for the group test before a skiing expedition.
