Ultraviolet Counterfeit Detection
Ultraviolet light can detect if paper currency and other official documents (including credit cards, driver’s licenses, traveler’s checks, passports, and green cards) are authentic or counterfeit. The ultraviolet light allows you to see fluorescent strips, dots, or other markings used on authentic bills and documents. The special fibrous paper that currency is made from is not fluorescent, whereas a counterfeit bill printed on bleached or white paper will reflect ultraviolet light, causing the bill to glow. -
Compact, Portable Design
This unit is lightweight and compact, easily moved from place to place.
OPERATION
- Turn the power on by flipping the switch from the “O” to the “I” position.
- Place the bill or document under the UV lamp on the detection plate. If the bill has fluorescent ink or fibers, the bill will glow.
Note: Avoid using the counterfeit detector under strong sunlight, as it will affect the ultraviolet light.
