1.2 Areas of Application
Hand-guided application in industrial and commercial areas.
The type 17-21BA-0024 BCS 3800ex handheld scanner is the successor model to the
BCS 302ex handheld scanner. This generation of explosion-proof handheld scanners
works within the visible red light range. Almost all types of bar code labels can be read,
e.g. coloured labels, labels made of heat-sensitive paper, etc. The handheld scanner
allows data acquisition even under extreme conditions.
The handheld scanner reads bar code labels reliably on awkward, round or rough
surfaces too. It can even read partially soiled labels properly. The data is acquired
without contact. The non-contact data acquisition means that the labels will not be
destroyed even if the scanner is used constantly.
The handheld scanner was developed specially for use in hazardous areas:
