The Zebra DS3608-ER is a robust handheld bar code reader designed for demanding industrial environments requiring reliable and precise scanning capabilities. Equipped with advanced laser sensor technology, this device supports both 1D and 2D barcode symbologies, including Codabar, making it versatile for a wide range of applications.
Engineered with durability in mind, the DS3608-ER features an IP67 rating, ensuring complete protection against dust ingress and water immersion up to 1 meter. Its rugged construction also provides shock resistance, allowing the scanner to withstand accidental drops and impacts commonly encountered in warehouse, manufacturing, and logistics operations.
Connectivity is facilitated through wired interfaces including RS-232, USB, and Keyboard wedge, enabling seamless integration with existing enterprise systems. The device’s power is supplied by a high-capacity 3100 mAh Lithium-Ion battery, supporting up to 70,000 scans per charge, which ensures uninterrupted operation throughout extended work shifts.
With a compact form factor measuring 132 mm in width, 76 mm in depth, and 185 mm in height, and weighing only 334 grams, the DS3608-ER offers ergonomic handling to reduce user fatigue during prolonged use. The scanner also includes LED indicators to provide clear feedback on scanning status and operational conditions.
Its scanning performance is enhanced by a wide range of supported barcode symbologies. For linear (1D) barcodes, it supports Codabar, Code 11, Code 128, Code 39, Code 93, GS1-128 (UCC/EAN-128), MSI, Plessey, and U.P.C. For 2D barcodes, it reads Aztec Code, Composite Codes, Data Matrix, Han Xin, MaxiCode, Micro QR Code, MicroPDF417, PDF417, QR Code, and TLC-39. The device operates with a wavelength of 655 nm and offers a tilt and pitch reading angle range of -65° to 65°, and a yaw reading angle of -45° to 45°, ensuring accurate scanning from various orientations.
Designed to operate reliably under challenging environmental conditions, the DS3608-ER functions effectively within an operating temperature range of -30°C to 50°C and relative humidity of 5% to 95%. It can be stored safely in temperatures ranging from -40°C to 70°C, making it suitable for diverse industrial settings.
Compliant with RoHS standards, the Zebra DS3608-ER meets environmental and safety regulations, reinforcing its suitability for professional use. Its programming functions allow customization to meet specific operational requirements, enhancing workflow efficiency.
