Xshielder A17BM - iPhone 17 ATEX/IECEx Zone 1/21
The Xshielder A17BM is a robust and reliable ATEX-certified iPhone, specially designed for use in hazardous environments. This iPhone offers excellent performance and durability, making it ideal for professionals working in industries such as the oil and gas industry, chemical plants and pharmaceutical manufacturing. Xshielder A17BM encapsulates the iPhone 17, retaining the same level of performance, features and functionality, but with extra protection for use in hazardous environments.

Four ways the Xshielder iPhone 17 series compounds savings.
The real cost of
choosing.
ZONE 1/21 CERTIFIED
Why the Xshielder iPhone 17 series delivers a lower
total cost of ownership over the full Zone 1 device
lifecycle.
When evaluating Zone 1/21 certified smartphones, comparing only the unit purchase price tells an incomplete story. Total Cost of Ownership captures the full economic picture: how long the device stays in service, how productive workers are with it, how often it has to be replaced, and what value can be recovered when it's time to upgrade.
This brief breaks down the four ways the Xshielder iPhone 17 series drives TCO down — designed to support your evaluation and internal business case.
5-6 Years
Major iOS updates from Apple, on a predictable schedule.
+2-3 years
Additional security patches after major updates end.
1 Investment
With residual value recovery at the end of the service life.
DRIVER 01
Longer service life per device
Predictable, on-time Apple OS support — at least 5 to 6 years of major updates plus 2 to 3 years of security patches1 — keeps each device safely in production for longer than alternative platforms.
DRIVER 02
Residual value recovery
The patented replaceable cover lets the iPhone be safely extracted at end of life — for trade-in, resale, or recycling. None of that value is locked away as it is in single-use rugged Android devices.
DRIVER 03
Higher productivity per worker
A lighter, slimmer device built on the iPhone your workforce already knows means actual daily adoption — turning every digital workflow you've invested in into measurable productivity, not shelved hardware.
DRIVER 04
Lower operational risk
Apple-grade hardware reliability — backed by global supply, QA, and field data at a scale niche Android Zone 1 vendors can’t match — combined with IP68 sealing, no user-accessible ports, and direct from-Apple security updates, reduces unplanned downtime, write offs, and exposure to vulnerabilities.
