Alarme de Segurança Pessoal
Explanation:
Me parece que é um alarme de segurança que entra em ação, caso o marinheiro (ou outro tripulante) não o acione regularmente, alertando que tal pessoa está em perigo ou sofreu um acidente.

Veja uma descrição deste tipo de alarme abaixo:
The SafePage 3000™ system provides a wireless "Safety Monitoring" of an engineer when working alone in remote areas (e.g. cargo area and engine room). By pressing a push button on a portable handset the engineer must at regular intervals signal that he is in good health. Otherwise, the officer on the bridge is alerted by a "Dead Man Alarm" raised on the Master Unit. The Master Unit is supposed to be mounted on the bridge or alternatively in the Cargo Control Room.

In case of an accident or the need of urgent assistance, the engineer can alert the officer on the bridge by activating the "Emergency Call" push button on the portable handset.

agree  isarcat: I'm in the same boat (ha ha). It's the same principle as a dead man switch - Alarme de seguranca is probably good., but I'm not sure of the Pt. term

agree  Ricardo Fonseca: Never heard of such device, only of the MOB (man over board) but the explanation sounds rather logic.
