DS3608-DL00003VZWW

The DS3608-DL00003VZWW is a corded, handheld area-imager scanner from Zebra configured with DL Parsing capability alongside RS232 and USB interfaces, distinguishing it from standard SR siblings. Its 1280 x 800 image sensor reads 1D and 2D barcodes — including PDF417, DataMatrix, QR Code, Aztec, DotCode, and Digimarc digital watermarks — at standard range up to 60 in, with a 42-degree horizontal and 28-degree vertical field of view, and tolerates skew and pitch angles of 60 degrees and a full 360-degree roll. DataMatrix elements down to 7.5 mil are resolved at a minimum print contrast of 15%. The industrial green chassis weighs 10.76 oz, survives multiple 8.0 ft drops to concrete, and carries IP65 and IP67 ratings covering dust, spray, and submersion. Operating temperature spans -22 degrees F (-30 degrees C) to 122 degrees F (50 degrees C), and air ESD tolerance reaches 25kV. Beep, vibration, notification LED, and diagnostic reporting round out the feature set. RoHS-compliant, it is backed by a 36-month limited warranty on scanner and cradle, with 12 months on the battery.

Description
ico-plus ico-minus
The Zebra DS3608-SR is a corded, ultra-rugged area-imager barcode scanner built for industrial and commercial environments where durability and consistent read performance are non-negotiable. Designed for warehouse, manufacturing, and delivery operations, it captures both 1D and 2D barcodes — including direct part marks — from near contact up to 60" away, even on damaged, dirty, or poorly printed labels. Its IP65- and IP67-rated housing is dustproof, sprayproof, and waterproof, and it withstands multiple 8.0 ft./2.4 m drops to concrete. The scanner connects via USB, serial, Ethernet, or Bluetooth interfaces, integrating cleanly into existing host systems. Operating across -22°F (-30°C) to 122°F (50°C), it performs reliably in extreme environments, including cold storage. A 36-month limited warranty underscores its long-term value for demanding workflows.
