Cash remains the backbone of daily commerce for banks, retailers, casinos and cash-in-transit operators — and with it, the constant threat of counterfeit notes. The DC-5100 UV/MG Money Detector from Easy-Banker is engineered to give cash handlers fast, reliable, bank-grade authentication at the counter.

How UV Detection Works

Every genuine banknote carries fluorescent security features that are invisible under normal light. The DC-5100 emits ultraviolet light at the optimal 365 nm wavelength, which excites these security threads, fibres and prints. Counterfeit notes — printed on ordinary paper — fail to fluoresce correctly, revealing themselves instantly to the operator.

How MG (Magnetic) Detection Works

Authentic notes use magnetic ink in specific areas. The DC-5100's magnetic sensor checks the presence and pattern of this ink, adding a second independent layer of verification that catches forgeries which might pass a UV-only check.

Multi-Currency, One Device

Rather than a single-currency tool, the DC-5100 supports 180+ world currencies, including USD, EUR, GBP and many regional notes. This makes it ideal for exchange bureaus, hotels, airports and any business that handles mixed international cash.

Built for the Front Line

  • Speed: sub-second verification keeps queues moving.
  • Portability: compact design fits any teller counter or mobile cash station.
  • Durability: designed for high-volume daily use.
  • Compliance: CE certified for use in regulated financial environments.

Why It Matters

A single accepted counterfeit note is a direct loss — and repeated incidents erode customer trust. Deploying the DC-5100 at every cash-handling point turns authentication into a fast, routine step rather than an expert-only task, protecting both revenue and reputation.

Easy-Banker is a 9-year manufacturer of cash-handling equipment — money detectors, banknote counters, coin sorters and currency banders — supplying banks and businesses worldwide. OEM and customization are available.
