The Datalogic PowerScan PBT9600 DPX is the cordless Bluetooth® direct part marking (DPM) model of Datalogic's rugged PowerScan 9600 series, built for traceability in manufacturing. It reads codes marked directly on metal and plastic parts as well as printed 1D and 2D labels, and its Bluetooth® 5.0 radio (Class 1, up to 100 m in open air) links it to a PowerScan 9600 Bluetooth base station or directly to any Bluetooth-enabled PC, tablet or mobile computer. It charges wirelessly (inductively) in the base, so there are no charging contacts to wear out. A removable 3350 mAh battery lasts for more than 80,000 reads per charge, the scanner withstands 50 drops from 2.5 m, is sealed to IP65 and IP67 and comes with a 3-year Datalogic warranty. This version, PBT9600-DPXRBK10EU, has DPX direct part marking (DPM) optics – white, red and blue illumination for laser-etched, dot-peened, inkjet-printed and electrochemically etched marks on metal and plastic parts.
It is the model without a display – a straightforward trigger-only scanner. It is supplied as a complete USB kit with the BC9630-BT base station/charger, a 2 m USB cable and a power supply (EU power cord) – ready to connect and scan.

💡 Getting started: connect the base to your PC or host and to the power supply, charge the scanner in the base and pair it with the base as described in the quick reference guide. Alternatively, the scanner can be paired directly with a Bluetooth-enabled PC, tablet or mobile computer (HID or SPP profile).
💡 The base doubles as the charging cradle. For a belt holster, a desk/wall holder, a hands-free stand or a spare battery for multi-shift work, add the PC-P096 holster, HLD-P096 holder, STD-P096 stand or a spare RBP-PM96 battery.
Key Features
- DPX direct part marking optics – white, red and blue illumination and Datalogic's 4D learning system automatically adapt capture and decoding to read laser-etched, dot-peened, inkjet-printed and electrochemically etched marks, as well as 2 mil 1D and 4 mil 2D codes.
- Bluetooth® 5.0 wireless technology – Class 1 radio with a range of up to 100 m in open air to the base station; pairs with a BC96x0-BT base or directly with any Bluetooth PC, tablet or mobile computer using the HID or SPP profile, with data encryption and scanner authentication.
- Wireless charging and long battery life – inductive charging without contacts or pins that could get dirty, bent or broken; the removable 3350 mAh Li-ion battery lasts for about 80,000 reads and charges to 95% in about 2.5 hours.
- Built for tough environments – withstands 50 drops from 2.5 m onto concrete (2.0 m at −20 °C), and the trigger is rated for 10 million pulls.
- IP65 and IP67 sealing – dust-tight and protected against water jets and temporary immersion, so the scanner can be cleaned and used in wet, dusty and outdoor areas.
- Clear good-read feedback – Datalogic 3GL™ (Three Green Lights), the Green Spot projected onto the code, a loud adjustable beeper and vibration confirm every read, even in noisy environments.
- Modular base station – the BC9600-series base/charger takes plug-in connection modules for USB and RS-232 (CM9630/CM9631) or Ethernet, EtherNet/IP and PROFINET (CM9680/CM9681); free Datalogic Aladdin configuration tool, OPOS/JavaPOS utilities and EASEOFCARE service plans.
Ideal Applications
- Direct part marking – laser-etched, dot-peened and inkjet-printed codes on metal and plastic parts in automotive, aerospace and electronics
- Manufacturing shop floor – work-in-progress, sub-assembly, component tracking, quality control and line inventory control
- Large production halls and assembly lines – cordless reading of part marks up to 100 m from the base, or paired via Bluetooth directly with a line PC, tablet or mobile computer
- Warehousing and logistics – receiving, picking, cycle counting and shipping
- Loading docks, cold stores and outdoor areas – IP65/IP67 protection against dust and water

How to read the part numbers: DPX stands for the DPX direct part marking optics; R/RB means the removable battery is included. Versions ending in K10 are USB kits and versions ending in K20 RS-232 kits with the BC9630-BT base station and a power supply, K30 is the Ethernet kit with the BC9680-BT base station and a power supply; the final EU gives the power cord supplied (US versions are available on request), and the version without a K suffix is the scanner only. Looking for a version without DPM optics? See the standard PowerScan PBT9600 models in our Cordless / Wireless Barcode Scanners collection, or contact our team for volume pricing.
