Motorola R7Ex Full-Keypad ATEX Radio | Zone 1/21 Safe
If you are managing a team in an explosive gas or dust environment, reliable communication isn't just a convenience—it is a critical safety requirement. The Motorola R7Ex Full-Keypad ATEX Two-Way Radio is engineered specifically for the most demanding industrial sectors, including oil and gas, petrochemical processing, mining, and emergency rescue. With its rugged build and advanced digital capabilities, this radio ensures your workforce stays connected, aware, and safe, no matter how extreme the conditions get.
Is the Motorola R7Ex right for my hazardous work environment?
Absolutely. If your site requires ATEX Zone 1/21 certification, the R7Ex is built to meet those strict safety standards. It is fully dust-tight and waterproof with an IP66 and IP68 rating, meaning it can withstand submersion in 2 metres of water for up to 2 hours. Furthermore, it is tested to military standards (MIL-STD-810H), ensuring it can handle drops, shocks, and extreme temperatures. If you need a version without the screen and keypad for simpler operations, you might also consider the Motorola R7Ex Non-Keypad Digital Two-Way Radio.
What are the standout safety and communication features?
This model features a 2.4-inch colour display and a full keypad, making it incredibly easy to navigate menus, send messages, and manage contacts. When working around heavy machinery, the AI-trained adaptive noise suppression guarantees your voice comes through loud and clear. For worker safety, it includes built-in GPS, Bluetooth 5.2, Wi-Fi for over-the-air programming (OTAP), and critical emergency features like Man Down and Lone Worker alerts.
How do I charge and manage my radio fleet?
The included IMPRES Li-Ion battery provides up to 19 hours of standard battery life, keeping your team powered through long shifts. To keep your devices charged and ready, you can use the IMPRES Single Unit Charger for individual users. If you are managing a larger fleet, the Six-Way Multi Charger is an excellent addition to your setup.
