Industrial and plant
Radios for industrial sites and plants
Noise, dust and water finish off ordinary handsets. These devices are built rugged, with IP-rated bodies and loud speakers for a plant floor, on the same Dispatcher platform as the rest of the operation.
What we put in front of this
Our shortlist for this kind of work. Prices exclude VAT.
Inrico T320 EX Intrinsically Safe PoC Radio
Inrico T521 4G Radio (Linux)
Inrico T700 4G Radio
Inrico IRC380 Hybrid PoC + DMR
Built rugged
The IRC380 is IP68 with a 1.5 m drop rating and MIL-STD-810H. The T521 is IP66 with a 1.2 m drop rating.
Loud and clear
The T521 has a 40 mm, 3W speaker. The IRC380 has a 36 mm, 3W waterproof speaker and a noise-cancelling microphone.
Changing over from DMR
The IRC380 works on PoC and on DMR, so the changeover does not have to happen in one weekend.
Hazardous areas
Where explosive gas or dust can be present, the T320 EX is certified intrinsically safe for Zone 1 and Zone 21, in an IP65 body with a dedicated SOS key.
DMR and PoC side by side
The IRC380 carries DMR on UHF 400 to 480 MHz or VHF 136 to 174 MHz alongside 4G push-to-talk.
DMR normally needs a frequency licence from ICASA. The PoC side does not.
Questions we get asked
Can we keep our DMR radios while we move to PoC?
Yes. The IRC380 works on both, so teams can move over in stages.
Which radio is intrinsically safe?
The T320 EX, certified Ex ib IIB T4 Gb for explosive gas and Ex ib D21 T135°C Db for combustible dust. It is priced on request, so tell us how your site is classified.
Are the radios type approved?
Yes. The models we stock carry ICASA type approval, and each certificate is linked from its product page.
Also worth a look
Not sure which fits?
Tell us the sites, the shift pattern and how many people need to hear each other. We will come back with a build and a price.
