ONERugged's Explosion-Proof Rugged Devices Ensure Safer Field Operations in Hazardous Environments

SHENZHEN, China, Nov. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- ONERugged offers a full range of intrinsically safe rugged tablets and smartphones — including the EM-I17J (EX), T1, and P1 — purpose-built for the oil & gas, chemical, and mining industries. Certified to ATEX standards, these explosion-proof rugged devices deliver reliable performance for mobile workers, enhancing productivity and ensuring safe operations in hazardous environments.

Are Your Mobile Devices Safe Enough for HazardousAreas?

In industries where safety and reliability are non-negotiable, mobile devices must withstand the harshest and most unpredictable environments. ONERugged's intrinsically safe rugged tablets and smartphones are engineered to operate confidently in explosive atmospheres, providing frontline workers with secure, real-time access to data and communication tools without compromising safety. Combining rugged durability with intelligent performance, these ATEX-certified devices help organizations in oil & gas, chemical, and mining sectors improve operational efficiency while maintaining the highest safety standards on site.

Certified for Safety: Explosion-Proof + Rugged Design

Every ONERugged intrinsically safe rugged device is rigorously engineered and tested to meet international explosion-proof and safety standards. Certified to ATEX requirements, the EM-I17J (EX), T1, and P1 are approved for use in Zone 2/22 hazardous environments, where explosive gases or dust may be present. Their specialized structural design, reinforced sealing, and anti-static materials prevent ignition sources, ensuring safe operation even in volatile conditions.

Beyond explosion-proof protection, ONERugged devices also meet MIL-STD-810H and IP65/IP68 durability standards, providing resistance against shock, vibration, dust, and water ingress. This robust construction allows the tablets and phones to perform reliably under extreme temperatures, heavy industrial use, and demanding field conditions — keeping mobile workers connected and productive wherever safety matters most.

Delivering Triple-Layer Protection for Frontline Operations

Motherboard

• Circuit Protection:
  The explosion-proof rugged devices' high-reliability components with overcurrent, overvoltage, and short-circuit protection prevent electrical faults that could cause sparks or explosions, ensuring safety in complex industrial environments.
• Current-Limiting Control:
  Precisely regulates current, voltage, and power to prevent ignition energy generation, maintaining safe parameters during prolonged operation in hazardous areas such as petrochemical or mining sites.

Battery

• Smart Charge–Discharge Management:
  The explosion-proof rugged devices feature an intelligent battery management system that continuously monitors charging and discharging, preventing overcharge and over-discharge to reduce failure and safety risks.
• Thermal & Pressure Protection:
  Automatically disconnects from the motherboard when internal temperature or pressure exceeds safety limits, preventing battery overheating or explosion.
• High-Density Coated Separator:
  Offers excellent insulation, heat resistance, and temperature stability, ensuring reliable battery performance in extreme environments.

Casing

• Rugged & Reliable Protection:
  Certified to MIL-STD-810H and IP65 standards for dustproof, waterproof, and drop resistance, the explosion-proof rugged devices ensure stable operation and device integrity in harsh field conditions.
• Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Protection:
  Withstands ±8kV contact and ±15kV air discharge to eliminate electrostatic ignition risks in hazardous areas.
• Anti-Vibration Design:
  Shock-absorbing housing minimizes vibration and impact on internal components, maintaining stability and operational safety during field use and transport.
