Scale
Tutupan produced an estimated 36 million tonnes in 2023 and Sangatta about 41 million tonnes, so fleets and workforces are large and contractor-heavy.

Intrinsically Safe Smartphone Distributor in Kalimantan Mining
Kalimantan hosts some of Indonesia's largest open-pit coal mines, including Kaltim Prima Coal at Sangatta in East Kalimantan and Adaro's Tutupan mine in South Kalimantan. Coal dust is a recognised health and handling issue in Indonesian mining, so dust control, cleaning and sealed enclosures matter for electronics used around crushers, conveyors and stockpiles. Distribution partners for Kalimantan coal mining region are being identified ahead of the Q4 2026 launch of the IS-04Z1.

Short answer. Kalimantan coal mining region 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.
For the record, no certificate exists for the IS-04Z1 today. The programme is under way ahead of a Q4 2026 launch. An operator's own vendor approval is a separate step. Certification status. Place facts reviewed October 2026.

Kalimantan coal mining region: industry on the ground
Coal bed methane reserves of about 12.8 trillion cubic metres lie mainly in Kalimantan and Sumatra, which is a reminder that methane can accompany coal seams, though development has been limited.
Kalimantan coal mining region: geography and layout
Indonesia's significant coal deposits are in South Sumatra, East Kalimantan and South Kalimantan, and reserves are estimated to last over 80 years at current rates of extraction.
Kalimantan coal mining region: industry on the ground
Indonesia's coal production reached a record 836 million tonnes in 2024, up from 775 million tonnes in 2023, and the country is the world's largest coal exporter.
Kalimantan coal mining region: climate and equipment wear
East Kalimantan has a dry season from May to October and a rainy season from November to April; average humidity in 2013 was between 83 and 87 percent, with temperatures ranging from about 22 to 36 degrees Celsius.
The term · intrinsically safe
What “intrinsically safe” means for a smartphone
Intrinsic safety limits the electrical and thermal energy in a circuit so that neither a spark nor a hot surface can ignite a gas or dust atmosphere, even when a fault occurs. The ib level, used for Zone 1, tolerates one fault. It is the usual way to make a handheld device that a worker carries continuously through a hazardous area.
The IS-04Z1 is designed on this principle for Zone 1 and Zone 21 (marking target II 2 G Ex ib IIC T4). Intrinsic safety is a design basis, not a certificate: certification is in progress and none has been issued yet.
In Kalimantan coal mining region. Rounds at a large open-pit operation cover fuel stores, power generation and conveyor or loading areas over long distances. A handheld designed for intrinsic safety could hold checklists and photographs, but only in gas areas covered by its marking, and subject to the operator's acceptance.
The route · distribution
Distributing the IS-04Z1 in Kalimantan Mining
SAMS is appointing authorised distributors ahead of the Q4 2026 launch. No territory has been granted for Kalimantan coal mining region 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.
What SAMS looks for in a partner
- Operator relationships
- Existing supplier registrations or a clear route to them with the main operators and contractors in Kalimantan coal mining region.
- Ex-competent staff
- People who understand zone classification, markings and the conditions of a certificate.
And equally important
- Local-language support
- Documentation, training and helpdesk in the languages the workforce uses.
- Service capability
- Spares, battery replacement and repair routed through SAMS-approved channels.
Questions · Kalimantan Mining
Frequently asked questions
Can we buy an intrinsically safe smartphone in Kalimantan Mining 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 intrinsically safe smartphone in Kalimantan Mining cost?
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.
What does ‘intrinsically safe’ mean for the IS-04Z1?
The circuits are designed to limit energy so a spark or hot surface cannot ignite a gas or dust atmosphere, even with one fault (level ib, Zone 1). Certification of that design is in progress.
Which areas at Kalimantan coal mining region would use it?
Likely candidates are coal handling and preparation plants (dust, zone 21), fuel and lubricant storage, mine-site power generation, coal loading terminals. 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 Kalimantan coal mining region?
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 Kalimantan coal mining region.
Does heavy rain in Kalimantan affect devices used at mine sites?
Kalimantan has a tropical climate with frequent heavy rain, so devices in open-pit and barge-loading areas face water, mud and dust together. Users typically want good ingress protection and cleaning routines; check the specification against the mine's rules.
Is there a legal requirement to supply coal domestically that affects mine logistics?
Indonesia has a Domestic Market Obligation requiring miners to allocate a share of production, 25 percent in the cited rule, to the domestic market. It affects shipping and customer mix rather than device choice, but it explains continuous coal handling at ports and power plants.
Are coal mines in Kalimantan treated as gas or dust hazards?
Open-pit coal sites mainly raise dust hazards at handling and preparation plants, plus gas hazards at fuel storage. The sheet does not assume methane. The operator's classification decides. Confirm with the site operator's HSE team which areas apply.
