The compact banknote validator Smart Protect Plus from ratiotec is ideal for the POS in nearly all industries and for checking euros (EUR), pound sterling (GBP) and Swiss francs (CHF). It is supported by its automatic currency detection and achieves a maximum validation speed of up to 0.5 seconds per banknote. Thanks to this high speed, customer flow continues undisturbed, enhancing customer satisfaction and encouraging purchasing power. As an added benefit, the validator also shows the total amount and number of accepted banknotes counted on its highly visible display – thus, making it in essence a 2-in-1 device.
