MOTOROLA DP4801EX ATEX 2-WAY RADIO
The Motorola DP4801Ex ATEX 2-Way Radio is built to keep workers safe in the most hazardous environments. Whether on offshore oil rigs, in petrochemical plants, or during mining operations, clear and reliable communication is mission-critical. With ATEX certification for use around explosive gases, combustible dust, and chemical vapours, this radio ensures your team can operate safely and efficiently in high-risk areas.
Built Tough for Demanding Conditions
Engineered for durability, the DP4801Ex is both rugged and dependable. It features an IP67 protection rating, making it completely dustproof and capable of withstanding immersion in water for up to 30 minutes. In addition, its bright blue housing makes it easy to identify as an ATEX-approved device, ensuring that workers always carry the correct equipment into restricted zones.
Advanced Safety Features
Safety is at the heart of the DP4801Ex. The Man Down feature automatically sends an alarm if the radio detects a fall, while the Lone Worker function triggers an alert if there is no user response within a set time period. Furthermore, a programmable emergency button provides immediate access to help when it’s needed most. Together, these functions offer peace of mind and enhanced protection in high-risk workplaces.
Clear, Connected, and Easy to Use
With 1,000 channels, a large colour display, and a full keypad, the DP4801Ex offers intuitive operation for busy professionals. Integrated GPS and Intelligent Audio ensure crystal-clear communication, even in noisy industrial environments. Additionally, with five programmable buttons and large, textured controls, the radio is simple to operate — even while wearing gloves.
