The term · ATEX and IECEx
What “ATEX and IECEx” means for a smartphone
ATEX is the European legal framework for equipment used in explosive atmospheres (Directive 2014/34/EU). IECEx is the international certification scheme built on the IEC 60079 standards. Buyers outside Europe often ask for both: an IECEx certificate is the technical evidence most national regimes build on, while ATEX is the legal route into the European market.
For the IS-04Z1 both routes are in progress with TÜV in Germany and neither certificate has been issued. The marking target is II 2 G Ex ib IIC T4: equipment Group II (surface industry), Category 2 (Zone 1 gas), protection concept ib (intrinsic safety), gas group IIC and temperature class T4.
In Mathura, Uttar Pradesh. The inland refinery at Mathura is run by one operator whose HSE and procurement teams set clear requirements, while pipeline and shutdown contractors may bring international expectations. A dual ATEX and IECEx route addresses both. The IS-04Z1 has no certificate yet, and both certification routes are in progress.

Questions · Mathura India
Frequently asked questions
Can we buy an ATEX and IECEx mobile phone in Mathura India today?
Not yet. The IS-04Z1 is pre-launch and its certification is still in progress ahead of a Q4 2026 launch. No unit goes into a classified area before the certificate covering it exists. The datasheet, the certification schedule and safe-area evaluation units are available now.
What does an ATEX and IECEx mobile phone in Mathura India cost?
No price is published. While certification is in progress there is no list price and no committed lead time, and a supplier quoting a firm figure for an uncertified Ex handset is promising something it cannot stand behind. Indicative pre-launch pricing is issued in writing against a stated quantity and site.
Is the IS-04Z1 ATEX and IECEx certified?
Not yet. Both routes are in progress with TÜV in Germany and no certificate has been issued. Any listing that says otherwise is wrong.
Which areas at Mathura, Uttar Pradesh would use it?
Likely candidates are refinery process units, crude and product tank farms, product loading gantries, pipeline pumping stations. Which areas are classified, and to what zone, is set by the site operator's own area classification drawings.
How do I become a SAMS distributor for Mathura, Uttar Pradesh?
Apply through the distributor page with your company details and the territory you cover. SAMS reviews applications company by company and has not yet granted a territory for Mathura, Uttar Pradesh.
How do I get to Mathura from Delhi?
Mathura is 162 kilometres south-east of Delhi, so most visitors fly into Delhi and continue by road or rail. Agree gate access, security passes and induction times with the operator well before travelling.
Is there a risk that older units differ from newer ones?
The refinery was commissioned in 1982 and expanded in 1989, so units of different ages may have different layouts and classifications. Ask the operator for the current classification of each unit you visit.
Does the absence of a marine terminal at Mathura change the hazard picture?
It removes jetty and ship-loading areas, but process units, tank farms, loading gantries and pipeline pumping stations remain classified. Check the classification of each area you work in. Confirm with the operator which of these areas allow handheld devices.
