How does the Recco Reflector work?

  • Professional rescuers can quickly pinpoint a buried reflector-equipped person’s precise location using harmonic radar.
  • This two-part system consists of a RECCO detector used by professional rescue groups, which have a range of over 200 metres, and RECCO reflectors that are attached to clothing, helmets, protection gear, and boots worn by skiers and riders and other outdoor enthusiasts.
  • When used in conjunction with a RECCO Detector, the reflector's diode mixer acts as a harmonic generator to produce multiples of the frequencies received from the detectors.
  • The returned signal is translated into an audio tone whose volume is proportional to the returned signal, and by means of volume control, a trained rescue operator can literally go straight to the buried reflector once a signal is detected.
  • It is a non-powered device meaning that it never needs to be switched on, will never lose signal strength and needs no batteries to function. It is maintenance free and has a virtually unlimited life.
  • In total, more than 850 search & rescue organizations in the world, to see full see list of resorts using Recco CLICK HERE

Why is the Recco reflector different to a normal avalanche transceiver?

The Recco Rescue System is different from Avalanche Transceivers because its a small band-aid size sticky transponder which is not powered, the reflector can be applied to your boots or helmet, the Recco detector does not contain any antennas and cannot be picked up by an avalanche beacon, the Recco detector has a range of over 200 metres which professional mountain rescue teams can pick up in the case of an avalanche.

Due to it not being a transceiver device the reflector will not lose signal strength and battery to function. 


Recommended Use:

Its highly recommend by Recco and by Snowsafe that you wear 2 Recco rescue reflectors, one on your boots and one on your ski or boarding helmet.


Recco SAR Helicopter Detector

 Recco SAR Detector Helicopter Recco SAR Detector Helicopter

Application & coverage:

The RECCO SAR Helicopter Detector is a missing person search device to search wide areas fast for people equipped with RECCO Rescue Reflectors. The detector is attached to the helicopter with a sling and carried as a hanging load.

SAR helicopters are currently operating in the following resorts : 

SWITZERLAND 

  • Zermatt 
  • Sion

ITALY 

  • Aosta 
  • Bozen

NORWAY

  • Alesund

SWEDEN

  • Ostersund 

AUSTRIA

  • Hohenems
  • Innsbruck
  • Linz
  • Graz

Functional principle:

The RECCO detector transmits a directional radio signal that is reflected by the RECCO rescue reflector. The detector operator perceives the reflected signal as a tone, and the closer the detector gets to the reflector, the stronger the signal/tone.

Search Parameters:

The search parameters are very dependent on the terrain, weather, vegetation and the surface structure. Therefore, only an approximate indication of the average search parameters can be given:

  • Height: approx. 100m
  • Speed: approx. 100 km/h
  • Search corridor width: approx. 100m
  • Search performance at average search parameters: 6 minutes/km2

Technical data for the RECCO SAR helicopter detector:

  • Weight: 80 kg (including batteries)
  • Size: 57cm (diameter)
  • Power source: battery operation, regardless of the helicopter type
  • Operating time: 6 hours

Technical data for the RECCO Rescue Reflector:

  • Integrated in equipment or extra retrofit for backpacks or helmet
  • Functional principle: passive transponder
  • Weight: about 4 g
  • Size: approx. 1.5 x 7 x 0.5 cm
  • Requires no battery or activation
  • Unlimited lifespan
