Enterprise Mobility for Industrial and Hazardous Areas

Pepperl+Fuchs is a global leader in developing innovative enterprise mobility solutions designed specifically for industrial and hazardous areas. With a deep understanding of explosion protection and rugged performance, their mobility range enables safe, efficient, and connected operations in environments such as oil & gas, chemical processing, utilities, and manufacturing.

Bluetooth® Low Energy Beacons

Pepperl+Fuchs Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) Beacons are designed to enhance safety and operational efficiency by enabling accurate proximity detection, indoor positioning, and real-time asset tracking within hazardous and industrial environments. These compact, intrinsically safe devices transmit low-energy signals that can be picked up by smartphones, tablets, or fixed gateways—providing operators with live data on personnel location, asset status, or zone entry. BLE Beacons play a critical role in digitalising plant operations by supporting automated workflows, access control, and evacuation procedures. Built with energy efficiency in mind, they offer extended battery life and minimal maintenance, making them an ideal fit for long-term deployment in ATEX and IECEx classified areas.
