An ATEX GPS tracker is a location and safety device certified for hazardous areas, so it can be carried or fitted where flammable gas, vapour or dust would make an ordinary tracker a serious ignition risk. Intrinsically safe by design, these devices track people, vehicles and assets across oil, gas, petrochemical and chemical sites without compromising safety.
Our ATEX-certified tracking devices cover personal and lone-worker trackers with SOS alerts, plus asset and vehicle trackers, all reporting over the 4G and 5G mobile network to your phone or platform. Certified for Zone 1/2 gas and Zone 21/22 dust atmospheres, they give you real-time location and man-down protection in the exact environments where standard electronics are prohibited.
How to choose an ATEX GPS tracker
- Confirm the hazardous-area zone and gas or dust group of your site, as the ATEX or IECEx certification of the tracker must match the classified area it will be used in.
- Decide what you are tracking: choose a personal or lone-worker device with SOS and man-down for people, or a rugged asset or vehicle tracker for plant and containers.
- Check the safety alerts: for lone workers, look for SOS or panic, man-down and no-movement alerts that reach a monitor or nominated contacts quickly.
- Confirm mobile coverage and reporting: the tracker reports over 4G or 5G, so a multi-network SIM helps on remote refineries, terminals and offshore-adjacent sites.
- Consider battery life and mounting: match run time to shift length or asset check intervals, and choose a rugged, certified housing suited to the conditions.
Frequently asked questions
What is an ATEX GPS tracker?
An ATEX GPS tracker is a location device certified for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. Built to be intrinsically safe so it cannot ignite flammable gas, vapour or dust, it lets you track people, vehicles or assets in classified hazardous zones on oil, gas, petrochemical and chemical sites, reporting over the mobile network.
What does intrinsically safe mean for a tracker?
Intrinsically safe means the device is designed so it cannot release enough electrical or thermal energy to ignite the surrounding atmosphere, even in a fault condition. An intrinsically safe or ATEX-certified tracker is therefore approved for hazardous areas where a standard GPS tracker would be prohibited.
Do I need an ATEX tracker for a lone worker on a hazardous site?
If the worker operates in a classified ATEX zone, then yes. A standard lone-worker device is not certified and could pose an ignition risk. An ATEX lone-worker GPS tracker provides SOS, man-down and location alerts while being safe to carry in the hazardous area.
Does an ATEX GPS tracker work without WiFi or fixed lines?
Yes. ATEX trackers use a built-in SIM to report location and alerts over the 4G or 5G mobile network, so they need no WiFi, broadband or fixed infrastructure. You only need mobile coverage on site, which suits remote terminals, refineries and pipelines.
What can an ATEX tracker be used for besides people?
As well as personal and lone-worker safety, ATEX-certified trackers are used to locate vehicles, plant, containers and other high-value assets moving through or stored in hazardous areas. This gives you real-time visibility of both staff and equipment across a classified site from one platform.
