Product Specifications
The NV40 note validator is the foundation of a range of note handling equipment.
Still in development is the note stacker, which is intended to be available with a mechanical or a software releasing locking system.
The Abberfield note validator is functionally different to others in that:
- The note validator can plug directly into a cradle with a self aligning plug / socket
- Cleaning of jammed notes is as simple as releasing the catch and withdrawing the motor drive module, totally splitting the note delivery path
- There are no drive belts or similar consumerables
- Chosen notes can be eliminated in either software but more usually by operating validate / eliminate switches, one for each denomination
- The note mouth piece facilitates easy note insertion
