SSAS

The ISPS Code requires every ship over 500 gt on an international voyage to be fitted with a ship security alert system (SSAS). Pole Star offers a choice of SSAS options, designed to ensure compliance with SOLAS XI-2/6 SSAS regulations and associated performance standards.

Pole Star's SSAS comprises two parts: the hardware which sends and receives signals to and from the satellite and the online service which displays alerts and routes them to the correct person.


Service Options

All Pole Star SSAS services are powered by Purplefinder, recognised as the leading maritime tracking system. The web-based application allows you to manage security alerts; to set, test and re-set the SSAS transceiver onboard the vessel remotely from your pc; and route notifications of alerts to designated recipients.

Alert Advanced

For the professional CSO, Alert Advanced provides a fully comprehensive service that combines a SSAS management system with sophisticated tracking and data reporting. Go to Alert Advanced for further details or contact Pole Star to discuss your requirements.
Compliance Only

Pole Star has also developed low-cost compliance only service options for operators on a budget. Please contact a distributor for details.

Hardware Options

Operating conditions and vessel type have a substantial impact on hardware performance and reliability. Please contact Pole Star to discuss your specific requirements.

Pole Star DSAS/DSAS-L
 
Pole Star offers a choice of two dedicated Inmarsat D+ SSAS units: Pole Star DSAS and DSAS-L. The DSAS is designed for the professional CSO who demands optimum performance. The DSAS-L is an entry-level product for the operator who requires compliance at low cost.
Third Party Equipment
 
 
Pole Star is now able to integrate other major manufacturers' SSAS units with Alert Advanced so that you can manage security for the entire fleet on one system. Go to the Hardware Compatibility List for details of approved hardware.
