6 / 28 Subject to technical modifications 16/05/2018 2 Safety 2.1 Intended use The hand-held scanners in the BCS 3600ex series are used for the mobile capture, processing and transfer of data within potentially explosive atmospheres. The data are transferred either using a connection cable (BCS 3608ex) or using a Bluetooth connection (BCS 3678ex). The hand-held scanners in the BCS 3600ex series have been modified for use in the following potentially explosive atmospheres: Configuration Approved zone BCS 3678ex-IS (Type 17-A1S4-XXXX) ATEX / IECEx Zone 1 and Zone 21 Class I, II, III DIV 1 BCS 3608ex-IS (Type 17-A1S4-XXXX) BCS 3678ex-NI (Type B7-A2S4-XXXX) ATEX / IECEx Zone 2 and Zone 22 Class I, II, III DIV 2 BCS 3608ex-NI (Type B7-A2S4-XXXX) The hand-held scanners may only be used together with operating equipment that corresponds to Installation Category I. You must comply with the permissible ambient conditions for the device used (see User Manual).

2 Safety Subject to technical modifications 16/05/2018 7 / 28 2.2 Personnel qualifications Target group Skills Qualified electricians • Professional training • Knowledge and experience to recognise and avoid risks that can emanate from electricity • Understanding of the overall system • Special instruction for potentially explosive atmospheres IT specialists • Understanding of the overall system • Configuration/programming • Understanding of programming manuals Warehouse and transport employees • Loading and transport activities • Correct storage Operators • Instruction by the operating company on operation, changing and loading the battery • Special instruction for potentially explosive atmospheres 2.3 Explosion protection Incorrect use of the hand-held scanner and its accessories can trigger fires and explosions in potentially explosive atmospheres.  Read the instructions in this Quick Start Guide thoroughly and follow them when using the device. In the event of overlaps with user manuals from Zebra, the instructions in the BARTEC User Manual apply. The BARTEC User Manual takes priority. 2.3.1 Using hand-held scanners and accessories  Always carry out an inspection prior to use (see Chapter 6.2, P. Fehler! Textmarke nicht definiert.).  Ensure that the application area corresponds to the explosion protection marking and permissible ambient conditions (see the User Manual).  Remove the device from the potentially explosive atmosphere immediately in the event of a malfunction or damaged enclosure.  Only use accessories specified by BARTEC in the potentially explosive atmosphere.  Have all maintenance work on and inspections of accessories conducted by authorised personnel.  Have all repairs to the hand-held scanner conducted by BARTEC.

8 / 28 Subject to technical modifications 16/05/2018 2.4 Residual risks 2.4.1 Risk of an explosion caused by electrical ignition sources Electrical ignition sources can trigger fires and explosions in a potentially explosive atmosphere. Non-approved components Specific hand-held scanners and accessories (including universal supply module, battery, cable) are suitable for each potentially explosive atmosphere. Hand-held scanners and components that have not been approved for the respective potentially explosive atmosphere may trigger explosions.  Only use components that have been approved for the relevant zone. Spark formation during battery change and cable connection Sparks can arise when changing the battery or connecting cables. Sparks can trigger an explosion in a potentially explosive atmosphere.  Only insert or remove the battery outside the potentially explosive atmosphere.  Only connect or disconnect the cable outside the potentially explosive atmosphere.  Always have cables connected by a qualified electrician. Spark formation caused by the battery falling out / the connection cable coming unplugged The following risks arise if the safety lock on the underneath of the hand-held scanner is not correctly closed: ‒ The battery on a Bluetooth hand-held scanner can fall out. ‒ The connection cable on a wired hand-held scanner can come unplugged. This can produce sparks which can trigger an explosion.  Check that the safety lock is correctly closed before taking the hand-held scanner into the potentially explosive atmosphere. Broken enclosure: loss of explosion protection The hand-held scanner has been tested for falls from a height of up to 2.4 m (Zone 2 / Div. 2) and 1.2 m (Zone 1 / Div. 1). There is a risk of the enclosure or the scan window breaking during falls from a greater height, in which case the explosion protection is no longer guaranteed.  Protect hand-held scanners from falling from a greater height.  If the hand-held scanner has fallen from a greater height or you suspect a damaged enclosure: – Remove the hand-held scanner from the potentially explosive atmosphere immediately. – Send the hand-held scanner to BARTEC.

BCS 3600ex series

2 Safety Subject to technical modifications 16/05/2018 9 / 28 Corrosion: loss of explosion protection The enclosure of the hand-held scanner has protection class IP67, however constant exposure to moisture can lead to corrosion. This may lead to the loss of the explosion protection.  Protect hand-held scanners against constant exposure to moisture.  Do not subject hand-held scanners to any damp weather conditions. 2.4.2 Damage to eyes caused by laser light The hand-held scanner operates with a Class 2 laser. Laser beams can damage eyes.  Do not look into the laser beam. 2.4.3 Risks of cuts if the scan window is broken The scan window may become damaged if the hand-held scanner falls down. There is a risk of cuts if you reach into the broken or cracked area.  When getting the hand-held scanner out, secure it to prevent it falling down.  Only get the hand-held scanner out when it reaches its destination.  If the scan window is broken: – Do not touch the broken area. – Do not use the hand-held scanner. – Send the faulty hand-held scanner to BARTEC. 2.4.4 Health hazard in the case of incorrect disposal Lithium ion batteries on the Bluetooth hand-held scanner contain pollutants that can be harmful to health.  Dispose of batteries in an environmentally sound way in accordance with regional regulations.

10 / 28 Subject to technical modifications 16/05/2018 2.5 Preventing damage to property 2.5.1 Short circuit caused by incorrect connection Incorrect electrical connection can cause a short circuit, thereby damaging the hand-held scanner.  Always have the hand-held scanner connected by a qualified electrician in accordance with the connection diagram. 2.5.2 Storage at too high a temperature A thermal fuse prevents the hand-held scanner getting too hot during operation and triggering an explosion. There is also a risk of the hand-held scanner getting too hot if the hand-held scanner is stored outside of the permissible ambient temperatures. The hand-held scanner is damaged as soon as the thermal fuse responds.  Only store the hand-held scanner within the permissible ambient temperatures. 2.5.3 Aggressive cleaning agents Aggressive cleaning agents can attack and fade the scan window, thereby impairing the scanning functionality. In extreme cases scanning is no longer possible.  Only use a damp cloth to clean the hand-held scanner. 2.5.4 Contact with chemicals The enclosure of the hand-held scanner consists of polycarbonate that has only limited chemical resistance. Contact with chemicals can break the enclosure.  Do not bring the hand-held scanner into contact with chemicals.
