Intrinsically Safe 1D and 2D Barcode Scanner

The BCSi-RF from VisionID is the world's first intrinsically safe barcode scanner with Bluetooth for direct communication with laptops, tablet PCs and other Bluetooth enabled application supporting devices (ASPs). The BCSi-RF also communicates with the EXMod-RF base station to provide hard-wired RS232 or RS422 serial data. Perfect for use in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and other industries where the use of regular barcode scanning devices is prohibited in hazardous classified locations.

An Atex rugged stainless steel IP67 housing stands up to the rough & tumbles of industrial environments and has been ergonomically designed for easy operator use. It provides interactive vibration feedback to confirm successful scanning in noisy situations, and the bifocal scan engine captures the maximum decoding area. Built-in illumination enables use in conditions from total darkness to bright sunlight.

All of the most popular 1D and 2D barcode symbologies are supported. Auto calibration and operational settings are established by scanning test barcode patterns provided in the instruction manual. The scanner projects an aiming pattern with center cross marker.

The scanner's battery can be recharged in the hazardous area using the intrinsically safe charging supply provided by the ExMod base station. This saves time and the inconvenience of taking the unit to a non-hazardous location each time. Battery life between full charges will typically yield 2000 scans. The charging cradle can be installed in any convenient location near the ExMod-RF base station.
