The term · rugged
What “rugged” means for a smartphone
A rugged phone is built to survive water, dust, drops and rough handling, usually rated by an IP code and a drop specification. Ruggedness is an environmental property: it says nothing about whether a phone may be used where flammable gas or dust is present. That is decided by explosion-protection certification and marking.
The IS-04Z1 combines both: an IP68 sealed rugged build and a design for Zone 1 and Zone 21 (marking target Ex ib IIC T4). The explosion-protection certificates are in progress and none has been issued.
In Loyang Offshore Supply Base. Loyang is in eastern Singapore near Changi Airport, so tropical heat, humidity and quayside spray apply, with rain on open yards. IP68 on the IS-04Z1 helps against water and dust. It is an ingress rating only and does not replace the Ex marking where a classified area exists.

Questions · Loyang Offshore
Frequently asked questions
Can we buy a rugged mobile phone in Loyang Offshore 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 a rugged mobile phone in Loyang Offshore 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.
How rugged is the IS-04Z1?
It is designed to IP68 sealing, with glove-friendly controls. Ruggedness is not explosion protection: that depends on the certificates, which are in progress.

Why does the wharf matter for equipment planning?
With a wharf able to serve more than 11 vessels at once, vessel mobilisation and demobilisation can overlap, and cranes, containers and fuel transfers share space. Portable devices should be chosen for rough handling, sea air and fast-changing zone boundaries.
Do tenants set their own device rules?
Yes. Tenants include oil and gas services companies, each with its own safety rules. A device accepted by one tenant is not automatically accepted by another. Ask the tenant's HSE team for its requirements, and be ready to supply the datasheet and certification status.
