More product features and operating details
- TOP-OF-THE-LINE COUNTERFEIT DETECTION The Safescan 165-S uses the latest counterfeit detection technology to scrutinize seven advanced security features built into today’s currencies: infrared ink, magnetic ink, metallic thread, color, size, thickness and watermark. This technology is so reliable it will detect double notes, half notes, and even the superdollar, the most sophisticated counterfeit banknote ever created. In just half a second, you’ll know using its configured security checks whether the banknote in your hand is genuine or counterfeit—and your customer will know, too, eliminating unnecessary discussion.
- Supported currencies include HKD, CNY, USD, JPY, MYR, SGD, GBP and EUR, depending on installed currency software. Ask us to check compatibility with the notes you use.
- ALWAYS UP TO DATE Central banks are constantly updating their banknotes to incorporate the newest security features and make it even harder for counterfeiters to succeed. Safescan’s dedicated currency management team makes sure your 165-S keeps pace with these changes. Check Safescan for available currency software updates; install applicable updates using the USB port or microSD slot on the back of the device.
- EASY TO USE AND LIGHTNING-FAST The 165-S has an intuitive control panel and a large, crisp display. Three clearly labeled buttons provide easy access to the 165-S’s features. The spacious LCD screen tells you exactly what you need to know: currency type and denomination, number of notes authenticated, and total value (if you’ve turned on the ADD function). What’s more, it takes less than half a second to verify each bill: just as fast as the customer can blink.
- SMALL AND STYLISH Safescan designed the 165-S with countertop use in mind. Its compact size takes up a minimum of space beside your register, and its sleek look—available in duotone gray or black—complements every business interior. The 165-S’s top-quality materials and elegant design subtly tell customers you’re using the best in counterfeit detection.
- PORTABLE Taking your business on the road? The 165-S’s compact size and optionally available LB-105 rechargeable battery make it easy to verify banknotes wherever you are. With up to 30 hours of mobile use, you can accept cash payments anywhere with confidence.
