Tab-Ex 02 rugged tablets by ECOM ensure efficiency and productivity

The ECOM Tab-Ex 02 tablet series by Pepperl+Fuchs is built for hazardous areas.

Pepperl+Fuchs manufactures essential products for dangerous work environments through its ECOM brand, available in Canada from Process Instruments and Components Inc. (PIC). ECOM Tab-Ex 02 rugged tablets are a major upgrade of the Tab-Ex 01 series of explosion-proof devices, increasing ease of use to workers in such hazardous industries as oil and gas, refining, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals. This series is built to maximize efficiency and productivity for mobile workers.

Accurate information and decision making

Available in different models for Division 1/Zone 1 and Division 2/Zone 2, Tab-Ex 02 rugged tablets minimize costs while they ensure accurate data capture, real-time information, and decision making. Based on Samsung’s innovative Galaxy Tab Active2, these lightweight tablets work with the high-performance Android operating system and feature a powerful Octa Core processor with 1.6 gigahertz and three gigabytes of RAM.

With this upgraded hardware, the Tab-Ex 02 allows users to identify objects in installation through augmented-reality applications. The software delivers all underlying information directly into the operator’s field of vision in real time, as it allows sharing within a company network. Augmented reality results in more transparency, higher availability, and quicker, safer processes, from planning to plant operation and maintenance.
