Solexy focuses on devices and patented technology for radio and bus transmissions in hazardous classified areas, including refineries, chemical plants, mines, offshore rigs, and other hazardous-rated environments.
Their flameproof, intrinsically safe barriers enable the transmission of RF signals into classified “Hazardous Areas.” Recognizing the need for robust solutions in industrial settings, Solexy developed a line of industrial antennas designed to withstand the harsh conditions of these environments. Building on their patented technology and addressing the demand for protecting additional signals, they created a solution for Ethernet.
With Solexy's Passive Ethernet barrier, Ethernet signals can now be transmitted from explosion-proof enclosures or purge panel systems into hazardous areas without requiring additional sealing devices, area-rated conduit systems, or extra power.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Solexy communication systems reliable in hazardous areas?
Solexy communication systems are designed specifically for harsh and hazardous environments. The enclosures, isolators, and antennas are engineered for use in locations where explosive gases or combustible dusts are present.
These systems use rugged materials and certified designs to maintain performance in extreme conditions. Each product is tested and certified to meet ATEX, IECEx, and North American standards, ensuring safe operation in zones where conventional equipment would pose a risk.
The durability and certification of Solexy communication systems make them a dependable choice for oil and gas sites, chemical plants, and other industrial applications.
What applications require a hazardous area access point?
A hazardous area access point is needed in locations where flammable gases, vapors, or dust may be present. These include oil rigs, refineries, chemical storage facilities, wastewater plants, and grain processing operations.
A hazardous area access point enables wireless data communication without introducing ignition sources. It reduces the need for complex wiring and allows real-time monitoring and control from remote systems.
Solexy communication systems include certified radio modems built to meet hazardous location requirements, offering both safety and reliability in challenging environments.
What is the benefit of an intrinsically safe antenna barrier?
A standard antenna is designed for general industrial or commercial use. It does not have the required mechanical protection to prevent ignition in explosive atmospheres.
An intrinsically safe antenna barrier is designed to provide energy limiting protection on antenna outputs from radio devices, to enable the use of non-explosion proof certified antennas in hazardous classified locations. This allows operators to utilize high gain, powerful industrial antennas within their hazardous areas providing exceptional wireless network coverage. These intrinsically safe antenna barriers are certified for use in hazardous areas and are constructed with materials that withstand corrosive or extreme environments - they can be installed inside the walls of explosion proof enclosures providing an efficient, cost saving solution for hazardous area wireless networks.
Solexy offers a range of intrinsically safe antenna barrier options to support wireless systems in areas where certified equipment is required.
How does an intrinsically safe Ethernet isolator protect connected devices?
An intrinsically safe Ethernet isolator protects communication lines by limiting the energy transmitted into hazardous areas. It prevents sparks, overheating, and current surges from reaching equipment installed in explosive environments.
This type of isolator acts as a safety barrier, allowing standard Ethernet devices to interface with field equipment safely. It ensures data transmission while complying with safety regulations for hazardous locations.
Solexy offers intrinsically safe Ethernet isolators that maintain high-speed data transfer without compromising safety.
How can Solexy support wireless communication in hazardous areas?
Solexy communication systems include certified isolators, antennas, and access points that work together to enable safe and effective wireless communication in hazardous areas.
These products eliminate the need for fiber or heavy cable runs, making installation easier and reducing costs. They support applications such as remote sensor networks, control systems, and field data access.
By offering solutions like an intrinsically safe Ethernet barrier and a hazardous area access point, Solexy ensures that wireless communication in hazardous areas is both reliable and compliant with global safety standards.
Solexy’s intrinsically safe antenna barrier options also extend connectivity to hard-to-reach or dangerous locations, maintaining signal strength and uptime in difficult conditions.
