Datalogic PD9630-ARK2 Barcode Scanner Overview
Industrial Handheld Auto Range Scanner with extra-long range capabilities and high flexibility
ULTRA-RUGGED WITH NEW BALANCED ERGONOMICS!
The PowerScan 9600 Auto Range (AR) barcode series is designed to withstand the toughest environmental conditions of a warehouse. The PowerScan 9600 imagers have an ultra rugged center of gravity design with balanced weight to avoid any stress during daily activities. A very visible aiming system allows the precise aiming on the barcode, including codes that are either close or far away.
AUTO RANGE OPTIC TO FULFILL ANY CUSTOMER NEED
The PowerScan 9600 AR series is a top performer even on damaged barcodes or when aiming through shrink wrap, and is equipped with a very fast 1D/2D autofocus scan engine that allows the operator to move easily from a short distance of a few centimeters of a pick list up to more than 20 m / 65 ft to aim at the highest barcode of a warehouse rack, even in very challenging scanning conditions.
MOBILITY ENHANCES PRODUCTIVITY
The PowerScan 9600 AR cordless imagers further enhance operator efficiency and safety with a double option of radios: Datalogic's proprietary STAR Cordless System™ or the new Bluetooth® 5.0 variant. Accurate power management allows long lasting battery life to always guarantee more than one shift of intensive scanning.
The PowerScan 9600 family features Datalogic's Wireless Charging System. Based on inductive-charging technology, the Wireless Charging System eliminates interaction with battery contacts and pins which often get dirty, bent, or broken over time. This removes a key point of failure for devices used in industrial and retail functions.
The BC9600 base/charger has a modular design and is available with multiple interface plug-ins for standard and industrial communications such as RS-232, USB, Standard Ethernet and Industrial Ethernet protocols.
The Datalogic PowerScan PD9630 reads both 1D and 2D barcodes, including GS1 DataBar linear codes, UPC/EAN, Code 128, Code 39, Codabar, Interleaved 2 of 5, and many other standard formats. With three optic options available—Standard Range, High Performance, and Document Capture—you can select the right configuration for your specific barcode reading requirements.
Is the PD9630 waterproof and suitable for harsh warehouse environments?
Yes, the PowerScan PD9630 features IP65 and IP67 water and particulate sealing ratings, making it highly resistant to moisture and dust. The scanner also withstands 50 drops from 2.0 meters (6.5 feet) to concrete and operates reliably in temperatures ranging from -20°C to 50°C (-4°F to 122°F), ensuring durability in demanding warehouse and logistics environments.
What connectivity options does the PD9630 support?
The Datalogic PD9630 offers multiple interface options including RS-232, USB, and Keyboard Wedge connectivity. This multi-interface capability allows flexible integration with various warehouse management systems, point-of-sale terminals, and data collection platforms available from us.
What makes the PD9630's aiming and read confirmation technology unique?
The PowerScan PD9630 features Datalogic's instinctive 'frame' aimer, 3GL (3 Green Lights) technology for superior good-read feedback, and Motionix motion-sensing technology. These innovations provide intuitive targeting, clear visual confirmation of successful scans from multiple angles, and enhanced operator feedback during high-volume scanning operations.
What is the power consumption and input voltage range for the PD9630?
The PD9630 accepts input voltage from 4.5 to 30 VDC, with maximum operating current of 480 mA at 4.5V, 420 mA at 5V, or 80 mA at 30V depending on the model variant. This flexible power specification makes it compatible with various power supply systems and mobile computing platforms used in warehouse operations.
How does the PD9630 perform in bright sunlight and high ambient light conditions?
The PowerScan PD9630 is immune to light exposure in both office/facility environments and direct sunlight, ensuring reliable barcode reading performance regardless of lighting conditions. This makes it ideal for outdoor receiving areas, dock operations, and other bright warehouse locations where consistent scanning performance is critical.
The Datalogic PD9630-ARK2 Barcode Scanner is also known as
DTL-PD9630ARK2
or PD9630ARK2.
