Cordless Automatic Currency Authenticator / Counterfeit Detector

The Semacon S-900 Series Compact Automatic Currency Authenticators feature a

simple Pass/Fail indicator and eject direction control in a durable compact space-

saving design. Feeding a bill into the machine is done quickly and easily, followed by

an immediate indication of the authentication results.

 

The S-900 Series utilizes Semacon’s SmartCert™ leading edge technology including

custom designed sensors to authenticate each banknote. The machine verifies the

banknote paper density and size and checks both sides of the banknote for validity

of the magnetic features, metameric infrared marks, ink properties and banknote

infrared images. Banknote authenticity is based on an integral analysis of all

measurements taken, providing the highest counterfeit detection accuracy available

in a compact point of sale machine.

 

Banknotes are processed at a rate of 80 per minute. Authenticated notes may be

ejected through the rear of the machine or returned to the feed tray and cause the

PASS indicator to be illuminated. Suspect notes are returned to the feed tray and

cause the machine to beep and the FAIL indicator to be illuminated.

 

Model S-960 features an internal rechargeable lithium-ion battery which enables the

machine to be used with or without an AC power cord. While plugged in, the battery

is automatically recharged. While in battery mode the machine will operate for 10–14

hours depending on the frequency of use.

 

For portable applications, an optional Belt Holster is available for model S-960 that

enables the operator to authenticate bills while wearing the machine on their belt.

 

These models can be easily upgraded to handle any future banknote releases which

may be issued by the Federal Reserve Bank
