Datalogic Gryphon GBT4500 Handheld Imager Kit, USB, Bluetooth, Red Illumination, High Density, Healthcare, BPOC

SKU: 

GBT4500-HCK10-HDRB

Configured for high-density scanning, the Datalogic GBT4500-HCK10-HDRB pairs red LED illumination with a 1280 x 800 imager to resolve Code 39 down to 3 mil and DataMatrix down to 5 mil across an omni-directional scan pattern with a 360-degree roll tolerance. Bluetooth wireless communication reaches 30 m, while a 3250 mAh Li-Ion battery recharges inductively in 4 hours via the included WLC4090-HC-BT base, eliminating contact maintenance. Motion tolerance of 35 in/s, a 65-degree skew and 65-degree pitch window, and a 15.70-inch scanning distance keep throughput high in active clinical settings. The kit handles 1D codes autodiscriminated across all standard symbologies, 2D formats including Aztec, Data Matrix, QR and MaxiCode, postal codes, stacked codes and Digimarc digital watermarks, with grayscale image capture output in BMP, TIFF or JPEG. Rated IP52 and tested to withstand repeated drops from 1.8 m onto concrete, the scanner operates from 32 degrees F to 122 degrees F and weighs 8.29 oz, suited to healthcare, pharmacy and laboratory environments.

The Datalogic Gryphon GBT4500-HC is a family of handheld healthcare-grade barcode scanners designed for clinical and point-of-care workflows that demand fast, accurate capture and easy sanitation. Built around 2D megapixel and high-density imagers, these cordless scanners read 1D, 2D and postal (and optionally Digimarc) codes used on patient wristbands, medication labels and laboratory vials. Variants offer Bluetooth wireless connectivity, inductive wireless charging and clear good-read feedback (Green Spot and vibration) to speed workflows and reduce errors. With disinfectable housings and ingress protection for clinical environments, the Gryphon GBT4500-HC series helps healthcare, pharmacy and laboratory teams improve throughput, hygiene and patient-safety verification.

Key Features

  • Healthcare-ready design: Disinfectable housings and chemical-resistant options support routine cleaning and infection-control protocols in clinical settings.
  • High-performance imaging: 2D megapixel and high-density imagers provide reliable capture of dense, small or low-contrast 1D and 2D codes common in medications and lab samples.
  • Cordless mobility: Bluetooth connectivity (including BLE) enables flexible point-of-care scanning and reduced cable clutter for bedside and cart workflows.
  • Convenient charging: Wireless inductive charging variants simplify charging routines and reduce wear on contacts and cables.
  • Clear good-read feedback: Green Spot visual confirmation and vibration feedback speed operator verification and reduce rescans.
