The IS-TH2ER.1 is the latest development from i.safe MOBILE and offers a number of new improvements over its predecessor. With the Zebra SE55 scan engine and IntelliFocus™ technology, the scanner with new green aiming device enables an impressive reading range of up to 12 metres and the fast and reliable capture of 1D and 2D barcodes – even under difficult conditions such as dirty or damaged codes. This makes the IS-TH2ER.1 the best choice for a wide range of industrial applications, from the chemical and pharmaceutical industry to the oil and gas industry and mining.
Benedikt Eckert, Head of Sales Europe at i.safe MOBILE, comments: “We are delighted to introduce our new product, the IS-TH2ER.1, at two of our partners’ stands at LogiMAT. The IS-TH2ER.1 and our 5G smartphone IS540.1 combine innovation, performance, safety and reliability and are the ideal combination for our customers working in critical and hazardous environments. As with all our product developments, our credo here was to offer our customers an even better solution for their daily challenges.”
Advantages of the IS-TH2ER.1:
Wide range: the IS-TH2ER.1 enables scans over up to 12 metres, ideal for applications in high-bay warehouses and large production areas.
Intelligent decoding: PRZM Intelligent Imaging technology and the green aimer, which is up to seven times more visible than a red aimer, optimises barcode scanning even in difficult environments – even in poor lighting conditions or with damaged codes.
Safe and easy handling: The IS540.1 smartphone is inserted into the handheld barcode scanner, securely connected via the ISM interface and data can be scanned and reliably processed immediately. The IS-TH2ER.1 is supplied with power via the ISM interface to the IS540.1, so the barcode scanner does not require its own battery.
Wide range of applications: In combination with the IS540.1, the IS-TH2ER.1 replaces several devices and offers a reliable solution for barcode capture as well as for fast and mobile data processing in hazardous industrial areas.
The IS540.1 5G Android™ smartphone is the ideal basis for the multifunctional scan set. With a clear 6-inch full HD display, a 48 MP camera and a powerful processor, it is optimised for the most demanding industrial applications such as predictive maintenance and process monitoring. The IS540.1 has a replaceable 4400 mAh battery for shift use, a programmable side button (for PoC/PTT) and a red button for lone worker protection. Additional accessories, such as the intelligent inspection system for valve leakage detection in hazardous areas Valve Sense (IS-VS1A.1) or the wired Remote Speaker Microphone (IS-RSM3A.1), can be connected via the 16-pin ISM interface on the side.
Industrial application areas and scenarios:
Chemical industry: The IS-TH2ER.1 enables the digital recording of materials and products that are processed in chemical production. This allows companies to ensure the quality and route of chemicals throughout the entire production cycle.
Oil and gas industry: The IS-TH2ER.1 optimises the monitoring and documentation of processes by enabling reliable and fast barcode capture in hazardous environments.
Pharmaceutical industry: The scanner supports the tracking of raw materials and products to fulfil the strict regulations for traceability and quality assurance in pharmaceutical production.
Food industry: The IS-TH2ER.1 ensures quality assurance and tracking of ingredients and food products by enabling accurate barcode capture for the safe transport and storage of products.
Mining: ATEX-certified scanners such as the IS-TH2ER.1 are critical for safety and documentation in mining, where every step of the production process must be monitored.
Logistics and warehousing: The IS-TH2ER.1 is the mobile scanning device of choice for the identification of stored hazardous materials. The captured data is processed safely and quickly, enabling efficient inventory management.
Maintenance and inspection: Thanks to its easy handling and Ex-certified design, the IS-TH2ER.1 can be used reliably in the most demanding environments for the maintenance and inspection of machines and systems.
Configuration of the IS-TH2ER.1
The Zebra 123Scan software facilitates a wide range of settings and customisations, allows configurations to be saved and applied to different scanners, making it much easier to manage multiple devices. With this user-friendly software, the scanner can be easily configured and optimised to meet specific requirements. The most important functions include:
Barcode configuration: barcode types are selected (e.g. QR codes, UPC, Code 128) and settings are customised for each type.
Scan settings: Scan settings can be customised for scan sensitivity, scan timeouts and the number of attempts the scanner should make to read a barcode.
Data formatting: The output of the scanned data can be adjusted, e.g. by adding prefixes or suffixes or removing certain characters.
Audible and visual signals: Audible and visual signals (LED) for successful or failed scans can be defined.
Firmware updates: Firmware updates for new functions and security updates can be carried out via the software.
Customised profiles: Various configuration profiles can be created for different applications and users.
