SKU: 

QW2520-BKK11

The Datalogic QW2520-BKK11 is a USB-A corded handheld imager rated IP52 and capable of reading 1D and 2D barcodes at motion tolerance up to 30 in/s, suited to POS checkout, retail, hospitality, healthcare, government, and light manufacturing environments. Its VGA 2D imager reaches a scanning distance of 15.70 in and handles a 360-degree roll angle alongside skew to 65 degrees, making omnidirectional reads practical without precise alignment. Symbology support spans all standard 1D codes including GS1 DataBar, plus Aztec Code, China Han Xin Code, Data Matrix, MaxiCode, Micro QR Code, QR Code, and Dot Code, with minimum print contrast of 15%, maximum element resolution of 10 mil for Code 39 and DataMatrix, and 5 mil for PDF417. The scanner operates under ambient light up to 110000 lux and captures images in BMP, JPEG, and TIFF formats. Datalogic Green Spot technology provides visual read confirmation, while Motionix motion sensing activates the scanner on pickup. The kit includes a 2.4 m coiled USB cable and stand, and the 5.11 oz black chassis withstands repeated drops from 1.5 m onto concrete.
