Safescan 35 Portable Counterfeit Detector

The Safescan 35 Portable Counterfeit Detector is an extremely compact and lightweight manual counterfeit detector designed for fast banknote verification wherever you need it.

Using three separate verification methods – ultraviolet, magnetic characteristics and metallic security thread – the Safescan 35 helps users manually inspect important security features built into genuine banknotes.

Battery-powered and weighing just 20g, the Safescan 35 is ideal for mobile cash handling at markets, events, taxis, delivery vehicles and other locations where access to mains power may not be available.

Three-Way Banknote Verification

The Safescan 35 allows banknotes to be manually checked using three different security characteristics.

• UV – Ultraviolet security features
• MG – Magnetic characteristics
• MT – Metallic / security thread

Combining these three manual checks provides a convenient way to inspect multiple security features of a banknote instead of relying on a single verification method.

UV Security Feature Verification

Press the UV button and move the Safescan 35 over the banknote to inspect the ultraviolet security features incorporated into the note.

The UV function can also be used to inspect UV features on other security documents and payment cards.

• Banknotes
• Credit cards
• Passports
• Driving licences
• Other compatible ID documents

Magnetic Feature Verification

The built-in magnetic head can be moved across the banknote to check for magnetic ink and other expected magnetic characteristics.

When an expected magnetic feature is detected, the Safescan 35 produces an audible signal to assist the user during verification.

Security Thread Verification

The Safescan 35 also provides manual verification of the metallic security thread used in supported banknotes, adding a third security check to the inspection process.

Suitable for All Currencies

Because the Safescan 35 performs manual security-feature inspection rather than currency-specific automatic recognition, it can be used to inspect banknotes from all currencies.

It is also suitable for current UK polymer banknotes, including both Queen Elizabeth II and King Charles III series notes.

Portable Battery-Powered Design

The Safescan 35 is designed specifically for portable use. Measuring just 9cm long and weighing only 20g, it can easily be carried between locations or kept close at hand during cash transactions.

• Extremely lightweight and compact
• Battery-powered operation
• Uses 4 x LR44 batteries
• Batteries included
• Neck strap included
• No mains power connection required

Ideal for Mobile Cash Handling

Its compact battery-powered design makes the Safescan 35 particularly useful in situations where a desktop counterfeit detector would be impractical.

• Markets
• Events
• Taxis
• Delivery vehicles
• Mobile businesses
• Retail counters

Manual Counterfeit Detection

The Safescan 35 is a manual counterfeit detector. It helps the operator inspect security features but does not automatically determine whether a banknote is genuine or counterfeit.

Users should compare the detected security features with the known characteristics of the banknote being examined.
