Peru: infrastructure
The 540 kilometre Camisea pipeline crosses the steep Andes to the Pisco terminal in the Paracas National Reservation, passing the Malvinas plant where LPG liquids are separated from the gas.
The IS-04Z1 is an intrinsically safe handset for people who cross into classified areas in Peru every shift: copper mine and concentrator operators, Camisea gas-field crews, refinery engineers, and the HSE and telecoms teams who equip them. Buyers searching for an industrial mobile phone supplier for Peru 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 industrial mobile phone for Peru 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.
Status: pre-launch. IECEx, ATEX, UKEX and NEC 500 certification is in progress and no certificate has been issued; launch is planned for Q4 2026. A buyer's engineering review is separate from the certificate. Certification status. Place facts reviewed October 2026.
| Check | What to look for | IS-04Z1 today |
|---|---|---|
| Ingress protection | IP rating for dust and water | IP68 design |
| Fleet management | EMM and MDM support | Android 16 with EMM and MDM |
| Explosion protection | A separate certificate and marking | In progress; not issued |

An intrinsically safe Android smartphone designed for Zone 1 and Zone 21 hazardous areas in Peru. It is pre-launch: IECEx, ATEX and NEC 500 certification is in progress ahead of the Q4 2026 launch.
Operators and classified areas drawn from the SAMS Peru market guide.
The 540 kilometre Camisea pipeline crosses the steep Andes to the Pisco terminal in the Paracas National Reservation, passing the Malvinas plant where LPG liquids are separated from the gas.
A testing partner reports that Peruvian homologation needs no local laboratory tests or local representative, certificates have unlimited validity, and there are no extra labelling requirements.
Type approval for radio equipment in Peru is run by the Ministerio de Transportes y Comunicaciones, MTC, and is based on American FCC standards.
The Camisea gas project in the Cusco Region started operating in August 2004, in a remote forested part of the Amazon Basin on the Urubamba River with a largely Indigenous population.
“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 Peru. Peruvian operations run with local and international technical staff, so Android 16 with Spanish and English interfaces on one handset suits mixed fleets. EMM and MDM lets a telecoms team enrol contractor devices on remote sites. Distances are real, and no charging point exists inside a classified area.
Supply of the IS-04Z1 to Peru starts only after certification, through authorised distributors. Until then a buyer can request the datasheet and the written certification schedule, and arrange a safe-area evaluation unit, which puts the site on the list for the right local channel at launch.
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 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.
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.
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.
The market guide for Peru covers Cuajone / Toquepala, Antamina, Cerro Verde, Las Bambas, 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.
At altitude the air is thin and cold, with strong sun and sharp temperature swings, so check the operating temperature range, battery behaviour in cold and any altitude rating on the datasheet. Confirm site limits with the mine operator, who may also restrict where devices can be taken underground.
Yes. Camisea is a remote, forested site in the Amazon Basin, so deliveries and repairs are slow. Plan spare devices, chargers and batteries, and ask the operator or contractor about transport, camp rules, permits and device approval before dispatching equipment.
Android 16 carries both Spanish and English interface languages on the same handset, which suits operations with local and international technical staff. Interface language is a software matter and separate from certification. Check with your IT team which language packs and apps your fleet policy requires.
