The PowerScan family of bar code readers are the ultimate industrial handheld scanners designed and constructed to withstand the toughest environmental conditions. The PowerScan 9600 imagers have an ultrarugged design, an ergonomic shape with well-balanced weight to reduce operator stress during daily activities.
MOBILITY ENHANCES PRODUCTIVITY
The PowerScan PM9600 cordless model further enhances the operator efficiency and safety with Datalogic's STAR Cordless System™. Bidirectional radio communication and display allow users to receive immediate feedback avoiding any risk of mistakes. The PowerScan PBT9600 cordless model is enriched with Bluetooth® 5.0 that can be paired to any device supporting Bluetooth connections, or to the Bluetooth base station. The BC9600 base/charger has a modular design and is available with multiple interface plug-ins for standard and industrial communication, such as RS-232, USB, Standard Ethernet and Industrial Ethernet protocols.
WIRELESS CHARGING
The PowerScan 9600 scanner features Datalogic's Wireless Charging System. Based on inductive-charging technology, Datalogic's Wireless Charging System eliminates battery contacts and pins that often get dirty, bent, or broken over time - and this removes a key point of failure for devices used in industrial and retail functions.
THREE OPTIC OPTIONS TO FULFILL ANY CUSTOMER NEED
The PowerScan 9600 area imagers are available in three different optics, to satisfy any customer need. The Standard Range optic is ideal for most of the applications requiring barcode reading at intuitive distance; the High Performance optic adds the capability to decode high density barcodes together with an increased depth of field on standard 1D/2D codes; the Document Capture model is thought for Wide Angle code reading and Document Capture applications.
What are the key differences between the Datalogic PM9600 Standard Range and High Performance models?
The Standard Range PM9600 features a single camera for reading low-density 1D and 2D codes at conventional distances, while the High Performance (HP) model includes dual cameras for extended reading range and superior performance on smaller or distant barcodes. Both models offer Datalogic's exclusive 'Green Spot' technology and white light illumination for reliable reads on damaged or dirty codes. We offer both variants to match your specific scanning distance and code density requirements.
What connectivity options does the PM9600-HP910RBK20 support?
The PM9600-HP910RBK20 is configured with 910 MHz wireless connectivity and includes RS-232 serial interface capability through the included CAB-548 cable. The scanner supports multiple interface options including RS-232, USB, Keyboard Wedge, and industrial protocols depending on your system requirements. Contact us today to discuss which connectivity option best fits your warehouse or logistics infrastructure.
Is the PM9600 durable enough for harsh warehouse environments?
Yes, the PM9600 is built to withstand extreme industrial conditions with IP67 and IP65 sealing ratings, allowing operation in dusty or wet environments. The scanner is rated for 50 drops from 2.5 meters at standard temperature and 2.0 meters at -20°C, plus 10 million trigger hits for long-term reliability. Its rugged construction makes it ideal for demanding warehouse, logistics, and manufacturing applications available from us.
What barcode types can the PM9600 High Performance model read?
The PM9600-HP reads both 1D codes (UPC, EAN, Code 128) and 2D codes (Data Matrix, QR, PDF417) with a maximum resolution of 2.5 mil for 1D and 4 mil for 2D codes. It also supports advanced formats including GS1 DataBar variants and can capture Digimarc digital watermarking barcodes. The dual-camera High Performance configuration delivers extended reading ranges for these diverse barcode formats.
How long does the battery last on a single charge?
The PM9600 features a 3350 mAh Lithium-Ion battery rated for approximately 80,000 reads per charge, with a full charge time of 3.2 hours at 12 VDC. Battery life varies based on scanning frequency and usage patterns in your operation. The included BC9630-910 cradle provides convenient charging and docking when not in use.
What's included in the PM9600-HP910RBK20 kit?
This complete kit includes the PM9600 High Performance scanner, BC9630-910 cradle, CAB-548 RS-232 cable, 8-0935 power supply, and 6003-0941 power cord—everything needed for immediate deployment.
