Zebra DS3608-SR Ultra-Rugged Industrial Barcode Scanner overview
The DS3608-SR is the standard-range corded model in Zebra's DS3600 ultra-rugged scanner family. It uses a 1,280 x 800 sensor to read 1D and 2D barcodes, including Digimarc, from close range out to around 1.5 m for large Code 128 labels.
The scanner is sealed to IP65 and IP68, is rated for 7,500 tumbles from 1 m and repeated drops to concrete, and operates from -30 °C to 50 °C, making it suitable for cold stores and harsh production floors. Besides USB, RS232 and keyboard wedge, it supports industrial Ethernet protocols including EtherNet/IP, PROFINET and Modbus TCP.
Zebra targets the DS3608-SR at warehouse and manufacturing scanning, with other DS3600 variants available for extended range, high density and direct part marking.
