Counterfeit detector Safescan 40H for banknote verification – UV and magnetic (MG) detection

Safescan 40H is a compact counterfeit detector for quick banknote verification using ultraviolet (UV) and magnetic (MG) detection. The device inspects banknotes for UV security features and the presence of magnetic ink, enabling fast on-the-spot checks that support accurate cash handling in retail environments, kiosks and small businesses. The unit’s small footprint and straightforward operation make it practical for checkout counters and back-office verification.

Advantages

The Safescan 40H combines UV and magnetic detection in a single compact unit, allowing two complementary verification methods without occupying much workspace. It provides immediate visual feedback when UV features are present and detects magnetic ink signatures used in many modern banknotes. The device is designed for ease of use, requires minimal setup and offers fast verification to reduce the time spent on each cash transaction.

Suitable for

• Retail cash registers and point-of-sale counters
• Kiosks, market stalls and pop-up shops
• Small businesses and service providers handling cash
• Back-office cash verification and cash reconciliation

Key specifications

• Detection methods: ultraviolet (UV) and magnetic (MG) detection
• Form factor: compact desktop unit suitable for countertop use
• Operation: visual UV inspection and magnetic ink sensing for quick verification
• Power: low-voltage mains-powered operation (external power adapter)
• User interface: simple visual indicators for acceptance or suspect notes

How to use

Place the banknote under the UV lamp area and observe the illumination of security fibers and UV-reactive features. For magnetic detection, position the note according to the device’s guidance so the magnetic sensor can scan the ink areas; the detector will provide a clear indication if magnetic ink is detected. Perform both checks sequentially for a more reliable assessment. The unit requires connection to mains power before first use and should be placed on a stable, flat surface.

Usage recommendations

Use the Safescan 40H as part of a routine cash-handling process: verify UV features first, then confirm magnetic ink presence. Inspect notes under consistent lighting conditions and handle suspicious notes according to your established cash-handling policy. Regularly clean the inspection area and follow the manufacturer’s maintenance instructions to ensure reliable detection.
