ATEX cell phones are a regulatory requirement for any worker operating inside classified Zone 1 or Zone 2 hazardous areas in hazardous industrial areas. Across hazardous industrial areas’s oil and gas, petrochemical, and chemical processing industries, flammable gases and vapours create explosion risks that standard commercial smartphones cannot safely handle. Any non-certified device used in these areas is both illegal under ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU and dangerous in practice. Infinity EX supplies a full range of ATEX-certified cell phones purpose-built for Zone 1 and Zone 2 deployment in hazardous industrial areas, backed by complete certification documentation, fast delivery, and dedicated technical support.
ATEX certification for a cell phone means the device has been independently tested and verified to not release sufficient energy — through sparks, arcs, or elevated surface temperature — to ignite the flammable atmosphere in a classified zone. In hazardous industrial areas, intrinsic safety (Ex ia / Ex ib) is the standard protection concept applied, limiting electrical energy at the component level so ignition is physically prevented. Every Infinity EX ATEX cell phone carries the Ex marking validated by an accredited Notified Body before supply to any classified facility in hazardous industrial areas.
ATEX cell phones are deployed throughout hazardous industrial areas’s classified industrial infrastructure — from offshore platforms and onshore oil fields to refineries, chemical plants, and gas processing facilities. Workers in hazardous industrial areas carry ATEX phones for voice communication, lone worker safety monitoring, electronic permit-to-work access, push-to-talk radio integration, gas detection alarm connectivity, and real-time inspection reporting. These functions are consolidated into a single ATEX-certified handset, reducing equipment burden while maintaining full compliance across hazardous industrial areas’s classified areas.
Oil and gas operations in hazardous industrial areas represent the largest user base for ATEX cell phones, covering upstream exploration and drilling, midstream pipeline and compression, and downstream refining and processing. Chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturing, fuel storage and distribution, paint and coatings production, and gas-powered electricity generation also require ATEX-certified devices for workers in classified zones across hazardous industrial areas.
ATEX cell phones for hazardous industrial areas must comply with IEC 60079-0 (general requirements for equipment in explosive atmospheres) and IEC 60079-11 (intrinsic safety). Each device must carry the correct Ex marking showing equipment group, category, gas group, and temperature class. Infinity EX provides the EU Declaration of Conformity, ATEX Declaration of Conformity, and the full conditions of safe use with every device supplied to hazardous industrial areas — documentation essential for compliance audits and regulatory inspections.
