Denmark: logistics and access
Port Esbjerg calls itself the world's largest base port for offshore wind activities and says it has been involved in shipping components to more than 65 offshore wind projects.
The IS-04Z1 is an explosion proof mobile phone designed for Zone 1 and Zone 21, from a wet deck 225 km west of Esbjerg to a fermentation building at Kalundborg and a biogas upgrading skid on Lolland. Buyers searching for an IECEx smartphone supplier for Denmark can take the datasheet and the certification schedule for the IS-04Z1 now; supply follows certification.
Pre-launch · certification in progress · Launching Q4 2026
Short answer. An IECEx smartphone for Denmark cannot be bought yet: the SAMS IS-04Z1 is pre-launch (certification in progress, no certificate issued), and the datasheet, certification schedule and safe-area evaluation units are available now.
Where things stand: the IS-04Z1 has not launched, and none of its four certification routes has produced a certificate yet. A buyer's engineering review is separate from the certificate. Certification status. Place facts reviewed October 2026.

An intrinsically safe Android smartphone designed for Zone 1 and Zone 21 hazardous areas in Denmark. It is pre-launch: IECEx, ATEX and NEC 500 certification is in progress ahead of the Q4 2026 launch.
The main operators, industrial areas and sites that the SAMS Denmark market guide covers.
Port Esbjerg calls itself the world's largest base port for offshore wind activities and says it has been involved in shipping components to more than 65 offshore wind projects.
Denmark imports about 12% of its energy but is also an exporter, and its electricity grid is connected by transmission lines to other European countries.
Denmark has North Sea oil and gas but ranked only 57th among net crude exporters in 2023 after ranking 32nd in 2008, so offshore work is mature, with decommissioning and maintenance a larger share.
North Sea natural gas projects began in 1984 and North Sea production made Denmark self-sufficient in energy in 1997, which explains the established offshore supply chain on the west coast.
IECEx is the international scheme for certifying equipment used in explosive atmospheres. A certificate of conformity is issued by an accredited certification body against a specific edition of the IEC 60079 standards and carries a schedule of conditions of safe use. It is not a legal requirement in most countries on its own, but many national schemes accept it as the technical basis.
The IECEx certificate for the IS-04Z1 is in progress and has not been issued. The marking target is Ex ib IIC T4, the intrinsic safety concept for Zone 1 gas with the hardest gas group (IIC) and a 135 °C temperature class.
In Denmark. Danish acceptance rests on ATEX, so IECEx is useful where international contractors and engineering firms working out of Esbjerg bring a global specification, or where Danish operators have assets elsewhere. The certificate of conformity and schedule of conditions are read alongside the ATEX file. Neither is issued, and certification is in progress.
There is no stock to order for Denmark yet. The IS-04Z1 is pre-launch, certification is in progress, and supply will run through authorised distributors after the certificates are issued. Procurement teams can prepare now with the datasheet, the certification schedule and a safe-area evaluation.
The technical specification, marking target and conditions of use, sent by email.
Which certificates are in progress, in what order, and what is still to be confirmed.
Evaluation units can be used for connectivity, MDM enrolment and workflow testing outside classified areas.
Tell us the site, zone, gas group and quantity so the right authorised distributor can contact you.
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.
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.
No. The IECEx certificate is in progress and has not been issued. SAMS will publish the number when it exists.
The market guide for Denmark covers Esbjerg, The Danish North Sea, Fredericia, Kalundborg, among others. Site-level pages are linked below.
Through authorised distributors once certificates exist. Until then SAMS can send the datasheet and certification schedule and arrange safe-area evaluation units.
Cold, wet and windy conditions affect battery life and touchscreen use with gloves, particularly offshore and at wind farms. Check the lowest rated ambient temperature on the certificate, the water ingress rating and whether touch input works with wet or gloved hands.
Typically the EU declaration of conformity, the certificate, the Ex marking details and instructions in the local language, which may be Danish or English depending on the operator. Request the site's equipment register template so supplier documents can be matched to it.
The classification of areas into zones comes from the emergency management agency under an executive order, while the employer's duty to assess explosion risk and hold an explosion protection document comes from the Danish Working Environment Authority. SAMS classifies nothing. Confirm the arrangement with the site operator for your plant.
