ecom is pleased to introduce the new Pad-Ex 01 Z2 & Pad-Ex 01 D2, a lightweight 11.6" Windows tablet PC which is certified for use in ATEX Zone 2 and Division 2 classified hazardous locations.

For those companies with hazardous locations whose IT policy includes or prefers the Microsoft Windows operating system, Pad-Ex 01 is the ideal mobile digital tool for your workforce.

Pad-Ex 01 is the next step in the evolution of ecom's Digital Mobile Worker platform, offering an unmatched choice of products proven to work wirelessly together to maximise workforce efficiency and protection - essential elements for the prolonged future sustainability of your business.

Pad-Ex 01 tablet: field mobile tablet, desktop PC, or both?

With Pad-Ex 01, the desktop PC used by field workers and their managers becomes mobile. Pad-Ex 01 can be used as a field-portable desktop extension (or replacement) to the desktop PC, offering a desktop dock for fast connection to your office monitor, mouse and keyboard.

Supporting an Intel i5/i7 processor powerful enough to adequately run the full Windows 10 operating system together with demanding Windows applications, Pad-Ex 01 is also designed to be light enough (at 1.2kg) to easily carry around the plant.

Pad-Ex 01 is based on an ultra-rugged Windows tablet - useful if you have both hazardous and non-hazardous areas. Software developed for the Ex-protected Pad-Ex 01 runs unaltered on the rugged device, and vice versa, further reducing your deployment costs.

In 2015 ecom responded to the needs of hazardous industries asking for the latest mobile digital technologies by delivering the world's first 4G/LTE Android smartphone Smart-Ex® 01 and 4G/LTE Android tablet Tab-Ex® 01 for use in Zone 1/21 and Division 1 classified hazardous locations.

Following the successful delivery of thousands of these devices to a wide variety of these industries for use with an even wider variety of applications, these devices are now in use - proven and trusted by end users and solution providers alike.
