The Safescan 185-S is SafeScan’s flagship automatic counterfeit detector, designed for rapid, reliable banknote authentication in busy retail, banking or hospitality environments. It inspects up to seven critical security features—infrared ink, magnetic ink, metallic thread, watermark, colour, size and thickness—in under 0.5 seconds per note, delivering 100 % accuracy even against advanced forgeries like the “superdollar.” Its bidirectional feeder guide means you can insert notes in any orientation (face up, face down, head first or tail first) without error
.

A large, high-contrast LCD clearly displays the detected currency, denomination, and count of authenticated notes; when the ADD function is enabled, it also shows cumulative totals in real time. Three tactile buttons provide intuitive access to all functions, and a visual plus audible “suspect” alarm alerts you instantly if a note fails validation. Free firmware updates (via USB or microSD card) ensure your detector stays current with new banknote series worldwide.

Measuring just 15.9 × 12.8 × 8.3 cm and weighing 620 g, the 185-S fits easily on any countertop without sacrificing workspace. It operates on 12 V DC (via the included 220–240 V AC adapter) and automatically enters standby after 30 seconds of inactivity to save power. All materials comply with CE, RoHS, REACH and WEEE directives, guaranteeing both safety and sustainability
