The Ex-PMR 2000 Intrinsically Safe Two Way RadioFinally a viable alternative the MotorolaThis professional intrinsically safe two way radio operates in two different frequency bands and is available in either the VHF 136-174 MHz or the UHF 400-470 MHz version. The radio’s transmission power has been limited to 1.2 watts for safe working in potentially explosive areas and initiating calls even over large distances.
The Ex-PMR 2000 intrinsically safe two way radio complies with the latest standards and may be used in areas with the protective ratings of Ex II 2 G Ex ia IIC T4 in Zones 1 and 2, in accordance with ATEX directives. In addition, the Ex-PMR 2000 complies with IP 64 and therefore satisfies high industrial demands on ruggedness and reliability, particularly in ex-hazardous areas. The CTCSS and DCS pilot tone systems and the five-tone signalling mode guarantee that communication is secure thus preventing interference from other radio communication. The Ex-PMR 2000 is equipped with a variety of mechanisms to protect lone workers. The integrated position sensor enables the monitoring of angles and will in emergency situations trigger an automatic alarm (dead-man‘s switch). The functions for protecting lone workers as well as the emergency button also allow manual alarms to be triggered by workers in emergency situations. All parameters for the Ex-PMR 2000 functions may be comfortably set on a PC using the corresponding software kit and can also be saved for programming several units. Thus minimizing work and ensuring that all radios harmonize with each other.
If you've been planning to test out an alternative to the Motorola, then the Ex-PMR 2000 intrinsically safe two way radio should be on your short list. Best thing is that as you phase out your Motorolas, you can still use them in conjunction with the Ex-PMR 2000!
