Industry-leading infection control - The DS82-HC Series raises the bar to help prevent the spread of bacteria with a sealed, healthcare-ready design. Disinfectant-safe plastics and smooth, crevice-free surfaces withstand aggressive cleaning. The sealed inductive trigger removes one of the most common points of microbial buildup, while contactless charging
eliminates exposed metal contacts—making the device easier to disinfect. Combined with antimicrobial labels, every detail of the DS82-HC Series supports stronger infection control.

Unmatched scanning performance for confident clinical care - Clinicians need scanners that work as reliably and relentlessly as they do, because scanning failures can lead to workarounds that compromise patient safety and productivity. The DS82-HC Series delivers uncompromising, industry-leading performance with an advanced 2 MP sensor, PRZM Intelligent Imaging, and a high-density focus designed to capture the most challenging barcodes across the hospital. From medication labels and translucent IV bags to blood bags, specimen trays, and wristbands on even the smallest patients, the DS82-HC Series reads them all quickly and consistently. That means fewer interruptions—and more time focused on patient care.

Multi-function button: streamline multi-app clinical workflows - A programmable multi-function button acts as a secondary trigger, allowing clinicians to switch between applications with a single press. They can scan into the EHR, then switch to a phlebotomy or specimen-labeling app without changing devices or interrupting care. This flexibility simplifies the workstation and clinician workflows—fewer devices, fewer errors. 

Adapt to Every Workflow - More ways to disturb patients less - The DS82-HC Series is engineered to support quiet, patient-friendly care. Intelligent illumination activates only when a scan is needed—reducing excess lighting and helping maintain a calm environment. A built-in lamp softly brightens a clinician’s workstation without relying on overhead lighting, ideal for night time rounds. And with customizable feedback modes including vibration, LEDs, soft adjustable tones, and one-touch Night Mode—clinicians get reliable confirmation of every scan without disturbing patients.
