The most popular tablet in the world, the iPad Mini 5, can now be used in explosive environments. By housing the iPad Mini5 inside a specially designed case, it’s suitable for use in some of the most hazardous worksites.
Non-Incendive and Intrinsically Safe
The aluminium and glass case enclosure contains any electrical or thermal energy that has the potential to cause ignition of a hazardous atmospheric mixture. Until recently, the only tablets that could be used in explosive environments were fully rugged, Android or Windows devices. Now organisations with Zone 1 classified work sites have the option of using Apple iOS products.
Cases that are Rugged to the Core
The intrinsically safe cases meet the highest standards for protection against shocks, vibrations, dust, and water in indoor and outdoor environments. A case offers just as much protection as a fully rugged device. The power, volume and mute buttons are located externally on the case.
With a rating of IP54, the device can withstand splashes of water from any direction and foreign objects but is not dust tight. The power plug is dust and waterproof.
Hazardous Specifications
Once the iPad Min5 has been fitted by us into the case, it is compliant with the following hazardous standards:
- ATEX & IECEx Certified
- Group A B C D
- II2 G Ex db IIC T5 Gb
- Ta: -20 C to +45C
Certified Tough
The case comes with certification and safety labels to ensure the unit can be identified on site as being intrinsically safe. The case is certified for ATEX, the European hazardous locations certification, and IECEx, the certification for the rest of the world. Anti tampering labels keeps everyone on site safe for the life of the iPad. Once fitted into the case the enclosure is rated to IP54.
