The Carnation FedPro CR500 is a compact, high-speed currency counter engineered for professional cash processing in demanding environments. Combining swift counting with advanced, multi-layered counterfeit detection, the CR500 is the powerful solution for modern retail, banking, and business operations that prioritize secure and efficient cash management.
Elite Speed & Quad-Sensor Counterfeit Defense
The FedPro CR500 offers selectable counting speeds up to 1,500 notes per minute, allowing you to optimize throughput based on the condition of your bills. This top-tier performance drastically reduces the time spent on manual cash reconciliation, while the robust security matrix offers maximum protection:

- Intelligent Note Verification: Beyond counterfeits, the CR500 identifies common processing errors such as chained, double, or half-notes, ensuring your final count is accurate to the penny.
- Flexible Operational Modes: Utilize the ADD function to accumulate totals from multiple runs or the Batch function to prepare specific cash quantities for straps or till floats.
- Ultra-Quiet Performance: Operating at a noise level of <60 dB, this machine performs its high-speed tasks without disrupting the quiet environment of a teller window or executive office.
Modern Integration & Durable Design
The CR500 is engineered for the modern office, blending industrial performance with a compact, future-proof design:
- Compact Footprint: Measuring just $263 \times 268 \times 255\text{ mm}$, the CR500 fits perfectly on crowded retail counters or small back-office workstations without compromising on power.
- Future-Proof Connectivity: Equipped with USB, RS232, and SD Card interfaces, the CR500 allows for easy software updates to stay ahead of new currency releases and counterfeit techniques.
- High-Capacity Feeding: The 300-note hopper and 200-note stacker ensure you can process large bundles of cash with minimal interruptions.
- Professional Reliability: With a 6.3 kg build, this machine is stable enough for high-speed operation while remaining portable enough to move between departments as needed.

1. Does a regular bill counter tell me the total dollar value?
No. A standard bill counter counts the number of pieces (quantity), not the denomination. For example, if you put in ten $5 bills and ten $20 bills, the machine will tell you there are "20 bills." You must pre-sort your money by denomination to calculate the total value. (If you need the machine to automatically calculate value for mixed stacks, check out our Currency Discriminators.)
2. How does the machine detect fake money?
Standard counters use two primary methods:
UV (Ultraviolet): It checks the paper’s reaction to UV light. Real US currency paper does not glow, but many counterfeit papers do.
MG (Magnetic): It scans for the magnetic ink used in the printing of authentic currency.
3. Can I count items other than currency?s.
Many of our regular bill counters can count other paper items of similar size, such as vouchers, tickets, or coupons, provided they fall within the machine's thickness and size specification
4. What is the "Batch" function used for?
The Batch function is a favorite for retail managers. It allows you to preset a number (like 25, 50, or 100). The machine will count exactly that many bills and then pause, allowing you to remove the stack and put a rubber band or paper strap around it for a bank deposit.
5. Why is my counter "double-feeding" or "jamming"?
This usually happens for one of three reasons:
Thickness Adjustment: There is a small tension screw on the back. If your bills are very new (thin) or very old (thick), you may need to adjust it slightly.
Dirty Sensors: Dust from paper currency can coat the sensors. A quick blast of compressed air usually fixes this.
Poor Loading: Ensure the bills are squared up and placed flat into the hopper for the smoothest feed.
