The Ex-PMR 2000 can be used in the Zones 1 and 2.

This professional radio operates in two different frequency bands and is available in either the VHF 136-174 MHz or the UHF 400-470 MHz version. The radio's transmission power has been limited to 1.2 watts for safe working in potentially explosive areas and initiating calls even over large distances.

The CTCSS and DCS pilot tone systems and the five-tone signalling mode guarantee that communication is secure thus preventing interference from other radio communication.

The Ex-PMR 2000 is equipped with a variety of mechanisms to protect lone workers. The integrated position sensor enables the monitoring of angles and will in emergency situations trigger an automatic alarm (dead-man's switch). The functions for protecting lone workers as well as the emergency button also allow manual alarms to be triggered by workers in emergency situations.
