Banknote counting machine Safescan 2985-SX Grey 3.5'' HD touch screen

The Safescan 2985-SX banknote counting machine in grey is a currency discriminator with a 3.5" HD touch screen designed to value count, sort and check mixed-denomination bills quickly and accurately. Its double-pocket layout and advanced dual CIS sensors let the unit recognize currencies and denominations, sort by orientation and send suspected counterfeits to the reject pocket. The machine accepts continuous feeding, supports multi-mix counting for up to three currencies, and can be updated via downloadable firmware when new banknotes are issued.

The double-pocket and front-loading hopper allow uninterrupted continuous counting, while built-in functions such as add, batch, face/orient, serial number scanning and user presets streamline cash handling. A high-resolution full-colour touch screen simplifies navigation and supports multiple languages. The unit is compact (271 × 293 × 300 mm), powered from AC mains, compatible with SD memory cards and can export or print results with optional accessories.

How to use

Place a stack of banknotes in the top feeder and select the desired mode on the touch screen (mixed-value, single-denomination, multi-mix or batch). The machine will automatically recognize currency and denomination, count and sort notes while checking security features. Suspected counterfeits are routed to the upper reject pocket and counting continues. Use the add function to accumulate totals across multiple runs, or set batch values to produce stacks of a specific quantity or value. Save custom settings for repeated tasks and export or print results when needed.

Usage recommendations

Regularly clean the internal sensors and transport path—open the top and back panels when prompted and use compressed air and Safescan cleaning cards. Keep firmware updated by downloading free updates from the Safescan website to ensure recognition of new banknotes.
