High quality reading of 1D barcodes and 2D Data Matrix ECC200 codes for product traceability, safety and identification is now available under hazardous area conditions with the new SICK ICR840-2 ATEX Image Code Readers

High quality reading of 1D barcodes
and 2D Data Matrix ECC200 codes
for product traceability, safety and
identification is now available under
hazardous area conditions with the
new SICK ICR840-2 ATEX Image
Code Readers.
The readers are said to bring the benefits of efficient manufacturing data control to Zone 1 and Zone 2 processes where it was previously unavailable.
Two ATEX certificated models are available, the SICK IP65 rated ICR840-2 ATEX reader for Zone 2 operation and, for Zone 1 operation, the iSCAN300 1D/2D reader which incorporates an ICR840-2 series reader in a bespoke Extronics ATEX II 2GD EEx d IIC T6 IP66 housing.
In both models, the ICR840-2 code readers deliver high reliability data reading to overcome weak contrasts, misaligned, dirty and poor markings, whether on labels, cartons or directly marked. The image code readers can be selected to meet specific application needs.
