NLV-5201
Fixed Mount 2D Imager Scanner

High-Speed, Reliable, and Flexible Scanning Solution

The NLV-5201 is a high-performance fixed mount 2D imager scanner designed for fast and continuous barcode reading applications.

Equipped with a high-sensitivity CMOS sensor and powerful decoding engine, it delivers stable performance at up to 100 frames per second, ensuring quick and accurate reading of both 1D and 2D barcodes—even those that are curved, reflective, or poorly printed.

Key Features

High-Speed and Accurate Reading

Built with an advanced CMOS imaging sensor and a high-speed decoding engine, the NLV-5201 captures up to 100 frames per second. It easily reads barcodes on fast-moving objects, improving throughput on production lines and access systems while reducing waiting times.

Three Lens Options for Flexible Integration

Available in SR (Standard Range), HD (High Density), and UHD (Ultra High Density) models, the NLV-5201 can be tailored to different reading distances, barcode sizes, and application scenarios. This flexibility allows users to optimize performance while minimizing customization and integration costs.

Rugged and Durable Industrial Design

The NLV-5201 features a robust metal housing with IP65 protection, providing dustproof and waterproof performance. It has passed electrostatic and vibration resistance tests, ensuring reliable operation in dusty, humid, or vibration-prone environments. This durability extends device lifespan and reduces maintenance costs.

Easy Integration and Fast Deployment

Supporting multiple interfaces including USB and RS232, the NLV-5201 also provides image output (Bitmap / JPEG) and automatic tuning functions. These features make installation and configuration simple for engineers, enabling quick deployment across embedded systems or automation setups.

User-Friendly Operation and Indicator Design

Equipped with physical control buttons and a three-color status LED, complemented by a green LED aimer bar, the NLV-5201 ensures intuitive, safe, and laser-free operation. It’s ideal for applications requiring continuous and hands-free barcode scanning.
