TWINSBURG, Ohio - Feb. 20, 2025 - As a proven solution for industrial and harsh environments, the rugged, hazardous area rated tablet Tab-Ex 05 reflects Pepperl+Fuchs' long-term strategic partnership with global leader Samsung. Built on Samsung’s state-of-the-art Galaxy Tab Active5, it ensures high data and device security through Samsung Knox.
The Tab-Ex 05 features a slim, lightweight design with a new high-performance operating system that delivers industry-leading performance in hazardous areas including ATEX/IECEX Zones 1/21 and 2/22 and US/Canadian NEC Class I,II/Division 1 and Class I, II/Division 2. Not only does it meet European standards and regulations, but thanks to Android Enterprise Recommended and Common Criteria certification, it is also certified for global use. Operating system updates up to Android 22 and security updates up to 2032 ensure a long service life.
The device has 6 GB RAM and 128 GB ROM, which can be expanded via micro-SD to up to 1 TB. The tablet is also equipped with a 13 MP back camera and a 5 MP front camera. It works with gloves and the S Pen, including in wet conditions. Thanks to its IP68 certification, the tablet is protected against splashing water and works reliably in all weather conditions.
With the Samsung Wireless DeX Mode, the tablet easily transforms into a complete desktop experience. This innovative feature allows the device to be used not only for mobile tasks but also as a full-fledged desktop replacement—without the need for an additional PC. This not only optimizes the work environment but also reduces the need for expensive desktop hardware.
In addition, Samsung KNOX guarantees devices are safeguarded from unauthorized access, and all business data is securely stored and processed. This advanced security architecture minimizes risks and maintains the integrity of data—on both devices and in the cloud.
The Tab-Ex 05 is both carrier- and MDM-certified, ensuring smooth integration into existing IT infrastructure and mobile device management requirements. From easy integration to adapting to specific enterprise needs, Tab-Ex 05 provides the flexibility to optimize a mobile workforce.
