Zebra DS82 Series DS8208-HC - Escáner de códigos de barras

Built for the unique demands of patient care, the Zebra DS8208-HC combines high-performance 2D scanning with a disinfectant-ready housing that withstands aggressive medical-grade cleaning agents. Unlike general-purpose scanners, its patient-friendly amber aiming pattern and vibration feedback are tailored for quiet, non-intrusive operation at the bedside or nursing station.

Highlights

• Disinfectant-ready plastics endure frequent wiping with harsh chemicals, reducing cross-contamination risk.
• Patient-friendly circular amber aiming pattern is less alarming than typical laser lines.
• Vibration feedback confirms successful scans without disturbing resting patients.
• Captures 1D, 2D, and Digimarc barcodes from labels, wristbands, and smartphone screens.
• Presentation and triggered scan modes adapt to hands-free or handheld workflows.

In daily use

Nurses can quickly scan medication barcodes, patient wristbands, and specimen labels without repositioning items. The scanner's IP52 rating protects against dust and dripping liquids, while its 1.8 m drop tolerance survives accidental falls to concrete floors. The bright rear-view LEDs provide clear status indication from any angle, and the 1280 x 960 sensor ensures accurate reads even on damaged or poorly printed codes.
