The term · industrial
What “industrial” means for a smartphone
“Industrial” describes a phone built for plant conditions: sealed, drop-resistant and manageable at fleet scale through Android Enterprise. It does not by itself mean the phone may enter a classified area. Only a device with a valid explosion-protection certificate and marking may do that.
The IS-04Z1 is designed to be both an industrial Android phone (IP68, 4,000 mAh battery, 50 MP camera, Android 16 with EMM and MDM support) and an intrinsically safe one. Its explosion-protection certificates are in progress and have not been issued.
In Angra dos Reis. Yard and terminal fleets mix permanent staff with contractors, so enrolling handsets in an EMM or MDM system lets each company manage its own. The Rio-Santos highway is the main access, so spare devices and chargers are best planned in advance. Charging would be done in a safe area.

Questions · Angra dos Reis
Frequently asked questions
Can we buy an industrial mobile phone in Angra dos Reis 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 industrial mobile phone in Angra dos Reis 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.
Is the IS-04Z1 an industrial phone as well as an Ex phone?
Yes by design: IP68 sealing, a 4,000 mAh battery, a 50 MP camera and Android 16 with EMM and MDM support. The explosion-protection certificates are separate and still in progress.
Which areas at Angra dos Reis would use it?
Likely candidates are crude oil tank storage, tanker piers and loading arms, shipyard offshore-unit fabrication and integration, bunker fuel barge supply. 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.
Does the coastal humidity at Angra dos Reis affect phone and tablet choice?
Yes, typically. A tropical monsoon climate and sea air mean high humidity and salt, so look for sealed housings, corrosion-resistant connectors and tidy cable or charging practice. Confirm with the site safety officer what ingress protection level their permit-to-work process expects.
How do crews reach island or offshore worksites from Angra dos Reis?
Access is generally by boat across the Bay of Ilha Grande, with many of the 300-plus islands reachable only by sea, and some units are later towed to the Campos Basin. Confirm boarding and carry-on rules for powered devices with the vessel operator.
How does the tropical climate affect handsets on piers and in the yard?
Rain, humidity and salt air are routine, so check enclosure rating, seal condition and charging contacts regularly. IP68 resists water and dust but is not explosion protection. Because ingress protection and travel time both matter on this coast, keep a spare device ready.
