Standards, Certifications & Engineering Technologies for Industrial and Field Computing

Explore the technologies behind CENAVA rugged tablets, rugged laptops, handheld terminals and industrial computers. Understand how IP protection, MIL-STD-810H testing, ATEX and IECEx certification, sunlight-readable displays, wide-temperature operation, hot-swappable batteries, industrial I/O, barcode and RFID, GNSS and RTK positioning, and wireless connectivity influence real-world device selection.

Each technology guide explains what the specification means, when it matters, what to verify before purchasing, and which CENAVA product configurations support it.
Rugged Computing Technologies

MIL-STD-810G/H Certification

The U.S. military standard for environmental testing — drops, shock, vibration, rain, dust, sand and extreme temperatures.

IP65 / IP67 Ingress Protection

The IEC 60529 rating system that defines how resistant a device is to dust, dirt and water — and what each digit really guarantees.

Learn More

ATEX & IECEx Explosion-Proof Certification

The certifications that allow computing equipment into hazardous locations with flammable gas or dust — Zone 1 / Zone 21 and beyond.

Sunlight-Readable Display Technology

How 1000-nit high-brightness panels, anti-reflective bonding and optical lamination keep screens usable in direct outdoor sunlight.

Learn More

Hot-Swappable Battery Design

Hot-Swappable Battery Design Main-plus-backup and dual-battery architectures for rugged tablets and laptops — swap power without shutting down.

Learn More

Wide-Temperature Operation

From -20°C cold rooms to 60°C vehicle dashes — how rugged hardware keeps computing where consumer electronics fail.
