SICK CLV280A1020 Industrial Grade Barcode Scanner

SICK CLV280A1020 is an industrial fixed-mount barcode scanner designed for inline barcode capture on manufacturing and packaging lines. It operates from 24 V DC and typically consumes about 7.5 W, with data output provided via an RS-232 interface for direct connection to controllers, PLCs, or scanning hosts. The device uses a visible 670 nm laser and is classified as a Class 2 laser device. This model is listed as discontinued by the manufacturer, so availability is generally through distributors, refurbishers, or used-condition listings rather than new stock. The CLV280A1020 is part of SICK’s CLV fixed-mount line, designed for industrial environments where stable, hands-free scanning is required and where legacy equipment may be retained or replaced. Common applications include reading barcodes on production conveyors, tracking parts on assembly lines, and supporting warehouse inventory workflows that rely on serial data streams for downstream automation.
