BARTEC iWAP107 – Zone 1 / Class I Div 1 Wireless Enclosure System

BARTEC iWAP107 Hazardous Area Wireless Enclosure System

The BARTEC iWAP107 is a certified Zone 1 and Zone 21 wireless enclosure system designed for reliable wireless communications in hazardous and potentially explosive environments. Certified for ATEX and IECEx Zone 1 and 21, as well as Class I Division 1 applications in the US and Canada, the iWAP107 provides a flexible platform for deploying standard wireless technologies in hazardous areas.

Unlike a conventional Ex enclosure, the iWAP107 incorporates BARTEC’s proprietary iSOLATE RF isolation technology, providing intrinsically safe RF outputs and allowing standard antennas to be used within the hazardous area.

Its compact internal chassis can accommodate a wide range of third-party wireless equipment, enabling the iWAP107 to support technologies including industrial Wi-Fi, UHF RFID readers, LTE/4G/5G routers, IoT gateways, LoRa/LoRaWAN, WirelessHART and ISA100.

This vendor-independent design allows operators to deploy their preferred wireless hardware while maintaining the hazardous area certification required for demanding applications across oil and gas, LNG, mining, petrochemical, chemical processing and other industrial facilities.
