Product Highlights

Superior scanning range------The advanced imager reads 1D and 2D barcodes printed on a label up to 60 percent closer and 35 percent farther than similar models in this class, with an extraordinary scanning range from 3 in. to 70 ft. (7.6 cm to 21.4 m). Now, one scanner can easily read barcodes on a picklist inhand and on the uppermost shelves of your warehouse racks, as well as extra-wide codes just a hands-length away — evenif they are under shrinkwrap, damaged, dirty or poorly printed.
Ultra-rugged, the most indestructible design in its class------The DS3608-ER is the most rugged scanner yet, with the highest drop, tumble and sealing specification in its class. The DS3608-ER is built to survive an 8 ft./2.4 m drop to concrete---23 percent more durable in this class. The DS3608-ER operates reliably after 5,000 tumbles. DS3608-ER is dust proof, spray proof and waterproofed to IP67 — they can be sprayed down with jetting water and even submersed in water for up to 30 minutes.
Multi-code captures and processes up to 20 barcodes simultaneously------Many labels have multiple barcodes your workers need to capture. Now, one press of the trigger captures the right barcodes and applies the unique data format required for each one for instant transmission to your backend systems — all with complete control over the order barcodes are processed.
Ready for the freezer------The DS3608-ER is built from the ground up to handle extreme cold. Its unique plastics, cables and components is designed to handle freezing temperatures without becoming brittle — making these scanners ideal for use in freezers and outdoor yards.
Faster pick-list processing------Users can easily select and capture an individual barcode from any pick list.
