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 Mundra, Gujarat. Mundra is a private port and Special Economic Zone with several operators sharing the area, so reviewers can come from the port operator, the LNG terminal and tenants. A dual ATEX and IECEx route helps international shipping and contractor teams. The IS-04Z1 has no certificate yet, and both routes are in progress.

Questions · Mundra India
Frequently asked questions
Can we buy an ATEX and IECEx smartphone in Mundra 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 smartphone in Mundra India cost?
There is no list price yet. SAMS gives indicative pre-launch pricing in writing, against a stated quantity and site, and does not commit to a lead time before certification completes.
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 Mundra, Gujarat would use it?
Likely candidates are liquid chemical and oil tank terminal, lng regasification terminal, tanker jetties, pipeline terminals. Which areas are classified, and to what zone, is set by the site operator's own area classification drawings.
Is intrinsically safe the same as explosion proof?
Not exactly. Explosion proof is a broad everyday term; intrinsic safety is one protection concept, which limits energy so ignition cannot occur. Flameproof (Ex d) is a different concept that contains an explosion. The IS-04Z1 is intrinsically safe by design.
How large is the Mundra special economic zone?
The notified multi-product zone covers 6,473 hectares, with a planned area of 135 square kilometres. Many companies operate inside it, each with its own site rules.
How dry is the Mundra region?
The nearby Kandla area has low rainfall of about 322 millimetres a year and April and May maxima around 40 degrees Celsius. Dust and salt air are likely, so check ingress and corrosion ratings.
Which cargo types at Mundra matter most when choosing a device?
Crude oil and chemicals matter most because they create hazardous areas around tanks and jetties, and LNG adds light-gas areas. Edible oils are generally less hazardous. The classification record for each area decides, so ask the terminal operator for its gas groups and temperature classes.
