Getac has today announced the launch of the next-generation
F110-EX(https://www.getac.com/intl/products/tablets/f110-ex/), an intrinsically
safe version of its powerful yet versatile F110 fully rugged tablet, aiming at
professionals working in/around ATEX and
IECEx(https://www.getac.com/intl/certifications/atex-iecex/) Zone 2/22
hazardous environments. The launch means Getac now offers ATEX and IECEx
options for three of its popular Windows-based rugged tablets –
UX10-EX(https://www.getac.com/intl/products/tablets/ux10-ex/), F110-EX and
K120-EX(https://www.getac.com/intl/products/tablets/k120-ex/) – for customers
looking to digitally transform key aspects of their operations.
Powerful performance
The F110-EX boasts the same powerful specification as the recently unveiled
next-generation
F110(https://www.getac.com/en/news/getacs-next-generation-f110-delivers-industry
-leading-power-brightness-and-rugged-performance-in-a-compact-tablet-form-factor
/). Features include an 11th generation Intel(R) Core(TM) Processor with
integrated Iris(R) Xe Graphics, PCIe NVMe SSD storage as default, WLAN Wi-Fi 6
for 3x faster data speed over previous generations, Bluetooth 5.2 and 4G LTE
WWAN. An integrated ThunderboltTM 4 port provides a 40 Gb/s connection for
expanded end-to-end solution capabilities, while its 11.6" LumiBond(R) 2.0
screen offers exceptional brightness (1000 nits) and readability in all weather
conditions
Intrinsically safe design
On top of this, the F110-EX features a range of intrinsically safe design
elements that enable it to meet stringent ATEX and IECEx certification
standards for use in Zone 2/22 hazardous environments. These include rubber
coverings on guide pins and exposed metal parts, enclosed connectors and screen
protection, helping to eliminate the risk of electrical sparks that could
potentially ignite explosive atmospheres.
Built rugged from the ground up
Like all Getac devices, the F110-EX is also built rugged from the ground up.
MIL-STD-810H and IP66 certification, drop resistance from four feet while in
use and an operating temperature range of -21°C to +60°C (-6°F to 140°F) all
provide further peace of mind and help optimise user productivity.
The ideal solution for hazardous work environments
The F110-EX's rugged performance, compact form factor and intrinsically safe
design make it ideally suited to professionals working in challenging,
potentially hazardous environments such as those found in the mining, oil and
gas, chemical and manufacturing industries. Below is a series of potential use
cases:
-Mining – Mineshaft safety inspections
Safety plays a huge role in mining operations, where the potential presence of
flammable gases or dust can pose major challenges. The F110-EX's intrinsically
safe design, wide operational temperature range, rugged reliability, and long
battery life make it ideally suited to key tasks like mine shaft inspection,
helping to keep workers safe while they carry out their duties.
-Oil and Gas – Site surveying and data collection
Digital data collection and analysis is a key part of modern oil and gas
operations, helping to optimise productivity, manage assets and avoid unplanned
downtime. The F110-EX's 11.6" sunlight readable screen, optional barcode/RFID
reader, FHD webcam, and 8MP rear camera simplify field data collection, while
optional GPS and powerful connectivity options make sending/receiving
information from remote sites quick and easy.
-Manufacturing – Chemical and pharmaceutical plant monitoring
Chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturing can be tough on IT equipment, while
many facilities often carry the added risk of explosive gas or dust potentially
being present. The F110-EX's rugged reliability and powerful connectivity help
maximise operational efficiency at all times, while its intrinsically safe
technology protects employees from explosive hazards in ATEX and IECEx Zone
2/22 environments.
"Worker safety must always be a top priority and stringent standards like ATEX
and IECEx serve as a strong benchmark for organisations operating in
particularly hazardous sectors," says Rick Hwang, President of Getac Technology
Corporation. "Our extensive range of fully rugged, ATEX and IECEx Zone 2/22
tablets demonstrates our ongoing commitment to worker safety, while also
providing customers with a choice of solutions that help them to meet their own
unique needs and challenges."
The F110-EX also comes with Getac's three-year bumper-to-bumper
warranty(https://www.getac.com/intl/help-support/warranty/), covering
accidental damage as standard. This industry leading warranty helps customers
maintain operational efficiency by getting their devices quickly back up and
running without the worry of additional cost or extended downtime should the
unexpected happen.
