Access
Terminals sit in a dense port and urban area, so site entry and permits are controlled by each operator.
Industrial estates have spread through Bogor, Depok, Tangerang and Bekasi along the main transport corridors, so manufacturing and plant sites sit in the wider Jabodetabek region rather than inside the city. Tank farms and tanker loading create Zone 1 areas. Distribution partners for Jakarta (Tanjung Priok fuel terminals) are being identified ahead of the Q4 2026 launch of the IS-04Z1.
Pre-launch · certification in progress · Launching Q4 2026
Short answer. Jakarta (Tanjung Priok fuel terminals) has no appointed SAMS distributor yet: the IS-04Z1 is pre-launch (certification in progress, no certificate issued, launch planned for Q4 2026), and distributor applications are open.
Where things stand: the IS-04Z1 has not launched, and none of its four certification routes has produced a certificate yet. An operator's own vendor approval is a separate step. Certification status. Place facts reviewed October 2026.
| Check | What to look for | IS-04Z1 today |
|---|---|---|
| Protection concept | Flameproof (Ex d) or intrinsic safety (Ex i) | Intrinsic safety, level ib |
| Zone suitability | Zone 1 gas and Zone 21 dust | Design target for Zone 1 and 21 |
| Certificate | Number, issuing body and schedule of conditions | In progress; not issued |
| Where it applies | Jakarta (Tanjung Priok fuel terminals): Fuel storage terminals, Tanker loading and jetties, Port fuel handling | Classified by the site operator |

An intrinsically safe Android smartphone designed for Zone 1 and Zone 21 hazardous areas in Jakarta. It is pre-launch: IECEx, ATEX and NEC 500 certification is in progress ahead of the Q4 2026 launch.

Vopak reports a joint venture with AKR at Tanjung Priok with 251,025 cubic metres of storage in 2018, expanded by 100,000 cubic metres to over 350,000.
The metropolitan area depends heavily on road transport and suffers severe congestion, with the inner and outer ring roads, toll roads to Tangerang, Cikampek and Bogor, and odd-even plate rules on 16 main roads.
Indonesian is the official language and the main language of public life, and the population has no ethnic majority, including Javanese, Betawi, Sundanese and Chinese Indonesian communities.
Land subsidence from groundwater extraction and building weight raises coastal flood risk in north Jakarta, and the flood-control approach relies on canals, dredging, pumping stations and coastal defences.
Jakarta is Indonesia's main financial and commercial centre, and global firms generally base their Indonesian headquarters or representative offices there, so it is the usual place for supplier meetings and contract approval.
“Explosion proof” is the phrase most buyers use for equipment that may be taken into a classified hazardous area. Strictly, it covers several protection concepts: a flameproof enclosure (Ex d) contains an internal explosion, while intrinsic safety (Ex i) limits electrical energy so that an ignition cannot start. Phones are normally intrinsically safe, because a flameproof handset would be too heavy to carry all shift.
The IS-04Z1 uses intrinsic safety, with a marking target of Ex ib IIC T4, and is designed for Zone 1 and Zone 21. It is pre-launch, certification is in progress and no certificate has been issued.
In Jakarta (Tanjung Priok fuel terminals). At tank farms and tanker jetties, explosion-proof is a casual label. Flameproof Ex d protects fixed pump motors and junction boxes, while a handheld used by terminal operators on foot relies on intrinsic safety. The terminal's classification plan decides what is accepted.
SAMS is appointing authorised distributors ahead of the Q4 2026 launch. No territory has been granted for Jakarta (Tanjung Priok fuel terminals) yet and applications are reviewed company by company. Because a certified Ex device cannot be opened by an ordinary phone workshop without invalidating its certificate, SAMS looks for partners who can provide competent technical support and after-sales service locally.
No. Nothing can be bought or taken into a classified area today: certification is in progress and launch is planned for Q4 2026. What is available now is the datasheet, the written certification schedule and evaluation units for safe-area use.
SAMS has not published a price. Any figure you are offered for an uncertified Ex phone should be treated with caution; written indicative pricing is available for a defined quantity and site.
It is intrinsically safe (marking target Ex ib IIC T4), which is the usual way to make a phone for hazardous areas. It is not a flameproof (Ex d) design, and certification is still in progress.
Likely candidates are fuel storage terminals, tanker loading and jetties, port fuel handling. Which areas are classified, and to what zone, is set by the site operator's own area classification drawings.
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 Jakarta (Tanjung Priok fuel terminals).
Allow generous time because congestion is severe and flooding is common from December to March. Schedule deliveries outside peak hours where possible, protect electronics from moisture in transit, and confirm customs clearance with your freight agent.
Mostly the latter. Head offices, regulators and procurement teams are in Jakarta, while the plants, refineries and terminals are elsewhere in Java and beyond. Many suppliers meet buyers in Jakarta, then deliver to sites such as the industrial estates around Bekasi and Tangerang.
Not really. Classified-area work is concentrated at fuel terminals around Tanjung Priok and Plumpang, not across the city. Offices and most industrial buildings need no Ex equipment. Ask each terminal for its classification and permit rules. Confirm with the site operator.
