Pepperl+Fuchs launched a new tablet for professional use in hazardous areas in Zone 2/22, Division 2. The new Pad-Ex 01 P12 is equipped with the Windows 11 Pro 64-bit operating system, offering maximum efficiency for demanding tasks and impressing with numerous other advantages. The tablet has an ultra-thin and lightweight housing with a widescreen display. Because of its compact and lightweight design, the tablet is ideal for outdoor use, the company notes. It is the first explosion-proof tablet that supports powerful application, thanks to the 12th generation Intel Core i5 processors based on the Intel Alder Lake platform, which enables a particularly high level of performance, it says. The Pad-Ex 01 P12 works faster than previous models with eighth generation processors, it adds.  The model is equipped with modern Intel Iris Xe graphics, providing sufficient computing power to process large amounts of data, images and video feeds in real time. The Pad-Ex is certified to protection class IP64, so it is protected against the ingress of dust and splash water on all sides. The battery life is up to 14 hours, which ensures uninterrupted, parallel operation of multiple applications with minimal risk of failure. The tablet also features an 11.6-inch FHD display with a resolution of 1920-by-1080 pixels and DynaVue technology. The display offers exceptional readability, even in direct sunlight. The model offers four modern touch modes, glove, pen, water and finger, so that it can be optimized for both indoor and outdoor applications. This allows for maximum accuracy, regardless of environment.
