Is the iphone explosion proof, so you can use it in hazardous work areas?

I wish to use my iphone 4 for work. I work in the oil industry and its classed as a hazardous work area. Can you use the iphone in these types of areas?

Although many users want to use iPhones, iPods and iPads in the workplace there are very real limits to it's usefulness and in your case safety.
There are many devices with ISafe or Intrisnically Safe ratings as well as HazLoc or Hazardous Locations ratings.  The use of electronic devices in the petro-chemical industry is well regulated.  You facilities or safety manager will tell you what devices are allowed and where.  Generally when someone asks if a device is explosion proof they are not actually looking for explosion proof but hazloc.  How often are you entering an area with explosive gasses under pressure or in a configned space with potential explosive gasses?
Use the right tool for the job, and in your area of work there is no Apple product that will meet even the weakest standards for safety. 
Be careful, your job or your life and the lives of others is on the line!

  • If i dont use the display when using the GPS and only listen to the voice instructions can that also makes the iphone overheat even if you dont use the display

    because when i use the gps app in my iphone 4s in the car my iphone gets overheat so
    if i dont use the display when using the GPS and only listen to the voice instructions can that also makes the iphone overheat even if you dont use the display
    will that help?

    When you use your GPS does your iPhone get hot enough to shutdown?  The reason I ask is that I have run my GPS app with the screen brightness set to near max connected to power for hours.  My iPhone got hot, but didn't shutdown.

  • I'm getting the iPhone5S and I know you can use the same Apple ID but I have to delete my details off my current phone, how can I keep my account so I can use it again on my new phone?

    When I sold my iPod I had to delete my apple account but I want to use this apple account on my soon to be new phone the iphone5S, I know you can use the same address but if I delete the account on my phone will I still be able to get it back on my new phone? And what about purchases and iBookstore? If I've purchased items will I be able to get them on my new device?

    Yes, you only have to make an icloud backup on your old phone and restore from that backup on your new phone. If everything goes well, you can safely restore your old phone.

  • Probably the most correct PSU calculator you can use for MSI K8N Nvidia Neo's

    Syar & Shanks PSUCalc
    Given the issues we see in the forum from lack of understanding of power supply requirements
    & the variation in users experiences, Syar had the original idea to setup a PSU Calculator & invited me to get involved.
    The result is an Excel Spreadsheet
    For Pre Office 2003 
    Download Link - PSUCalc - PSUCalcv1.82.xls
    For Office 2003
    Download Link - PSUCalc - PSUCalc2003.v2
    Features:-
    1) Select CPU
    2) Select Gfx Card Press SLI button if applicable.
    3) Allows for Overclocking impact By:-
    Selecting CPU Voltage, Lower CPU Multiplier, Select Htt/FSB speed.
    4) User Selectable Power supply Load target. For PSU to run efficiently, Quietly & cooler
    It can't run @100%, generally accepted load Target is 80% of Maximum.
    5) Enter PSU Specs by rail. The spreadsheet will then indicate wether the PSU is acceptable.
    6) Variable Load calculations - Enable impact of idle & different % component activity to be seen. Graphics has (L)oad (3d) & (I)dle (2d) settings - All others on % load.
    7) Enter Inputs in Colour Coded Cells.
    The Spreadsheet uses US/UK Formating & so does not conform to European conention eg 1.56 US/UK to 1,56 Europe. To get round this European users should:-
    Point to programs - Microsoft Office - Office Tools - Languages
    Then set office language as us-English or uk-english as default .
    Inside excel select tools - options - international-tab
    Remove the tick on "use system separators" and enter . as the separator in the "desimal separator" box .
    As somebody said Quote
    Uk and US is as far  as i know the only countrys in the world using . as desimal seperator .
    For anyone interested comments are around that show the basis of key calculations. CPU values have been derived from.

    This is an update of the pre 2003 version.
    THe major change is the addition of a Component Detail section below the Main screen similar to that found in the 2003
    version.
    Without VBA the lists used in the 2003 version using Data verificartion cannot be dynamically updated. So the Component Detail section in this version allows the user to enter data for specific components themselves.
    This means that you have thae ability of getting a fairly accurate estimate of power usage using the default power settings, which will be adequate for troubleshooting PSU Issues or helping to choose a new supply.  By entering custom data a very accurate model can be created.
    The accuracy basically revolves around how average is an an average(ok whats the SD for statisticians) This is best shown with an example. This is the List in the 2003 version all of which can be specifcally selected. in this version only a single value can be selected :-
    Hard Drives           3.3v   5v   12v
    all WD Caviar Sata   0.00   4.00   5.40
    Generic PATA           0.00   8.00   17.00
    Generic SATA           0.00   4.00   8.00
    Maxtor DM10            0.00   4.29   7.95** Used as Default
    Maxtor DM9/DM10 sata   0.00   4.29   7.95
    None                   0.00   0.00   0.00
    Seagate sata 120gb   0.00   4.50   8.00
    WD raptor           0.00   3.50   4.20
    So to take an extreme example if using 2 Generic Pata drives the default will understate consumption etc.,
    To set up Cusytom user data:-
    1) Enter Description
    2) Select component Category using the row list selector & choosing:-
    GFX   Graphics Card
    CPUF   CPU Fan
    FAN   Fans
    CD   Dvd/CD
    HD   Hard Drives
    PCI   PCI/PCI-E
    This ensures that the component is added to the relevent category in the summary sheet.
    2) Enter the Watts used for the component (Normal running/Load) 3.3v,5v,12v.
    3) Enter Number of the component used.
    4) Optional Select Variable load %
    As in the previous version you can use the default values However the entry point has now moved from the main form to the summary section of the component detail section. Just enter the number of items against each category.
    CPU Fan
    Fans
    Dvd/CD
    Hard Drives
    PCI/PCI-E
    The Variable load % for default components are in the orange user cells in Column L of the summary sheet as b4.
    Summary :-
    If you haven't got office 2003 or don't like to many lists & buttons This is the version 4 you.
    2003 has more inbuilt component choices & data lists can be easily added.
    The Same Set up steps need to be taken
    1) Non US/UK - regional windows settings other than us/uk
    2) Excel Addins

  • Whats the earliest version of Itunes you can use for an Ipod Touch?

    Hi, I've been having a problem trying to get my Itunes to recognize my Ipod. The problem is, I can't update to the 7.7 or 7.6 version because for some reason my computer cant download the XP Service Pack 2, which is frustrating me. Is there any way around that as in I can use a newer version of Ipod without having to upgrade to Service Pack 2 or 3?

    From the Tech Spec page for the Touch:
    *Windows system requirements*
    PC with USB 2.0 port
    Windows Vista or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 2 or later
    iTunes 7.7 or later
    You could see if there are any other iPod managers that will let you load music onto your Touch. I don't hold out a great deal of hope as it's not just a question of the latest iTunes but of aspects of the OS which you don't have.

    Best of luck.

  • What is the maximum number of datasets you can use in a non-global zone.

    I have been trying to assign 8 datasets to a non-global zone. Whilst I can create as many as I like using the zonecfg command, when I boot the zone only the first 7 ever get mounted. Running zfs list in the zone also only displays the first 7 datasets.
    Any assitance will be greatly appreciated.

    Yes, I know this is an old post, but I’m trying to clean them up. Did you solve this problem, if so what was the solution?
    This sound like a firewall issue. I would start by disabling the firewall and seeing if you can connect. If this works then you know where the problem is,
