Motorola GP340EX ATEX VHF or UHF
Radio with Li-ion Battery

Overview

With the introduction of the ATEX Directive (94/9/EC) in July of 2003 it became mandatory for all equipment designed for use in hazardous environments within the European Community to meet these new standards.

Motorola launched their ATEX-approved Professional Series Portable Radios in May 2005. By adding the new ATEX approved versions to the portfolio, it should be easier than ever to find a radio suited to your organization's operating environment.

With a higher classification gas protection (II 2 G EEx ib IIC T4) and dust protection (II 3 D T1300C IP54) a unique Motorola capability - no other manufacturer claims ATEX dust protection - the new products are the standard bearer for Intrinsically Safe handportable radios.

Blue Radios can be operated in potentially explosive atmospheres without the mandatory need for a carry case

The GP340EX with 16 communication channels is a simple 2 way radio solution for use in hazardous environments with its streamlined features it allows users to concentrate on the job knowing that if required help is only a button push away.

The Motorola GP340EX ATEX radio requires an Offcom Licence to operate in the UK, see licences for more info.
