Manufactured with an extra strength, robust outer casing, the BCS 370 DustEx, has been built with an internal shock absorber and an ultrasonic welded window, which makes the product ideal for unremitting operation in the hardest of industrial conditions; in fact with these high resistant characteristics, the scanner can withstand being dropped onto a concrete base from a height of 1.8m.
Immune to direct exposure from normal office and factory level lighting Bartec have developed the ATEX certified BCS 370 DustEx for wireless real-time data acquisition and with its integrated decoder it is perfectly suited for prolonged operation in production halls, warehouses and many other production sites.
