Hazardous Area Smartphone Distributor in Surabaya
Juanda International Airport, about 12 km from central Surabaya in Sidoarjo, is Indonesia's third busiest airport and served around 500 aircraft a day in 2019, with Batik Air and Citilink using it as a hub. The Surabaya Industrial Estate Rungkut and neighbouring Gresik, with a fertiliser plant and cement works, hold the chemical, fuel and process areas where Zone 1 and Zone 21 equipment applies. A hazardous area smartphone distributor in Surabaya and the Gresik industrial area would carry the IS-04Z1 to these buyers once certification completes.

The term · hazardous area
What “hazardous area” means for a smartphone
A hazardous area is a place where flammable gas, vapour or combustible dust may be present. Standards divide these into zones: Zones 0, 1 and 2 for gas and vapour, and Zones 20, 21 and 22 for dust. Zone 1 and Zone 21 are the tier where an explosive atmosphere is likely to occur in normal operation, which is where the IS-04Z1 is designed to work. Anything carried in must be marked for the zone, gas group and temperature class of the area.
No certificate has been issued for the IS-04Z1 yet, so it must not be taken into a classified area until the certificate covering it exists and the site operator has accepted it.
In Surabaya and the Gresik industrial area. Classified areas span port fuel and chemical handling, fertiliser and chemical plants, cement plant dust areas and chemical plants in the industrial estate. Each plant or terminal operator classifies its own areas, not SAMS. Ask each for its drawings.

Questions · Surabaya
Frequently asked questions
Can we buy a hazardous area smartphone in Surabaya today?
Not today. Until the certificates are issued the IS-04Z1 stays out of classified areas, and until launch there is nothing to purchase. You can ask for the datasheet and the certification schedule, or book a safe-area evaluation unit.
What does a hazardous area smartphone in Surabaya cost?
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.
Which hazardous areas is the IS-04Z1 designed for?
Zone 1 and Zone 21 (gas and dust) with gas group IIC and temperature class T4, subject to certification. It must not be used in a classified area before its certificate is issued and the site has accepted it.
Which areas at Surabaya and the Gresik industrial area would use it?
Likely candidates are port fuel and chemical handling, fertiliser and chemical plants, cement plant dust areas, industrial estate chemical plants. 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 Surabaya and the Gresik industrial area?
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 Surabaya and the Gresik industrial area.
Is the climate in Surabaya hard on handheld equipment?
Temperatures are steady, around 23 to 31 degrees, but the wet season from October to May brings heavy rain and humidity, and coastal air adds salt. Devices typically need good ingress protection and cleaning routines for exposed use.
Which industrial areas around Surabaya matter for hazardous-area equipment?
The wider metropolitan area includes Gresik, Sidoarjo and other satellite cities with port-side and industrial plants. Typical hazards include fuel, chemical and bulk handling, so ask each operator for its zone classification and device approval requirements.
Does Gresik count as part of the Surabaya market?
Yes in practice. Gresik lies about 25 kilometres north-west of Surabaya, and its fertiliser and cement works are major buyers of safety equipment. Requirements are set plant by plant. Confirm with each site operator's safety function.
