SICK CLV692-0000 – High‑performance 1D laser barcode scanner for conveyor and logistics reading

The SICK CLV692-0000 sits at the top end of the CLV6xx family, designed for fast, reliable 1D code reading on moving goods. From my experience, it’s the unit teams pick when line speed keeps creeping up and labels aren’t always perfect. The scanner’s advanced decoding (ACR code reconstruction), flexible interfaces, and rugged IP65 housing make it a practical drop‑in for distribution centers, packaging halls, and automotive parts tracking where downtime costs real money.

Company’s Order Placement Process and Guarantees

• Warranty: 365 days
• Delivery: 1 week for in‑stock; no more than one month at the latest
• Payment: 50% advance payment, full payment before delivery
• Express options: FedEx, UPS, DHL

Key Features

• High-speed laser scanning – Typically up to 1,200 scans/s, so it keeps up with fast conveyor applications.
• ACR code reconstruction – Helps decode damaged or partially covered barcodes; you might notice fewer “no-reads” on rough cartons.
• Flexible connectivity – Serial (RS‑232/422), Ethernet TCP/IP, and CAN are available on CLV69x variants, simplifying integration into mixed networks.
• Industrial I/O – Digital inputs/outputs for trigger and good‑read signals, useful when tying into PLC tact or photoeyes.
• IP65 rugged housing – Works reliably around dust and splash; in many cases no additional enclosure is required.
• Simple setup via SOPAS ET – Auto-setup and guided wizards reduce commissioning time; typical device tuning takes minutes, not hours.
• Wide reading distance options – CLV69x optics cover short to long ranges; the -0000 variant is a standard configuration suited to conveyor reading at medium distances.
• Laser Class 2 (visible red) – Safe to operate in industrial environments with standard precautions.

Technical Specifications

Application Fields

The CLV692-0000 is built for moving product identification and system-level traceability. Typical use cases:

• Conveyor sortation in warehouses and 3PL hubs
• Packaging and palletizing lines reading GS1-128, Code 128, Code 39
• Automotive/components kitting and WIP tracking
• Parcel, post, and express crossbelt scanners
• Food & beverage secondary packaging verification

One thing I appreciate is how forgiving it seems to be with low contrast labels. A customer in a regional DC told us their “no‑read” rate dropped noticeably after enabling ACR in SOPAS and tweaking the focus profile.

Advantages & Value

• Reliability – ACR decoding and high scan rates reduce manual rework, which typically pays back faster on busy lines.
• Compatibility – Standard industrial I/O and Ethernet/serial interfaces make it PLC‑friendly (Siemens, Rockwell, Beckhoff).
• Cost control – IP65 build and stable optics mean fewer replacements; in many cases you avoid protective enclosures.
• Support & tooling – SOPAS ET configuration and diagnostic logs help maintenance teams resolve issues quickly.

Installation & Maintenance

• Mounting – Rigid bracket on a vibration‑free frame; align the scan line perpendicular to barcode motion for best results.
• Wiring – 24 V DC supply with proper grounding; keep signal and power runs separate from VFD motor cables to limit noise.
• Cabinet/environment – No special ventilation required; avoid direct steam or washdown jets unless additional shielding is used.
• Safety – Class 2 laser: do not stare into the beam; place labels on the machine to match IEC 60825‑1 practice.
• Routine care – Clean the front window with non‑abrasive wipes; periodically back up parameters from SOPAS ET; firmware updates can be applied during scheduled stops.
• Tuning – Run auto‑setup when product mix changes; verify trigger timing and depth of field if conveyor height is adjusted.

Quality & Certifications

• CE compliant
• cULus listed (typical for SICK CLV6xx family)
• RoHS compliant
• Manufactured under ISO 9001 quality systems
• Manufacturer’s warranty: 12 months (we provide 365‑day warranty coverage)

Recommended Accessories (optional)

• SICK CDB620 connection module for simplified field wiring and I/O expansion
• Mounting brackets and protective covers for dusty conveyors
• Standard M12 or D‑sub industrial cables (lengths to suit conveyor span)

If you need confirmation on exact optics and interface set for the CLV692-0000 in your project, share the required reading distance and network type. We can validate the configuration and pre‑load SOPAS parameters, so the scanner arrives ready to bolt on and run.
