The Ex-Handy 10 intrinsically safe 4G/LTE smartphone (photo) is now globally approved for Zone 1/21 and Div. 1. The phone has also completed testing and certification for the Sprint Open Market program. Designed for harsh environments, the Ex-Handy 10 is simple and rugged, and it promotes Industry 4.0 applications in hazardous areas. Being certified for the Sprint Open Market program means the Ex-Handy 10 can be activated on the Sprint network and ensures that Sprint-specific features, like the Sprint Direct Connect Push-To-Talk service, operate reliably. The phone features IP68 protection and permissible ambient temperatures from –20 to 60°C. — Pepperl+Fuchs North America, Twinsburg, Ohio
