Hitachi iH-100 Bank-Grade Currency Discriminator
Hitachi iH-100 Intelligent Currency Discriminator – Professional Mixed Bill Counter
The Hitachi iH-100 is an advanced, intelligent single-pocket currency discriminator designed to deliver bank-grade speed and uncompromising accuracy. Utilizing state-of-the-art Full IR CIS (Contact Image Sensor) technology, the iH-100 goes beyond basic counting to provide high-speed mixed denomination counting and superior counterfeit detection. It is the definitive solution for financial institutions and high-volume businesses that prioritize security, throughput, and long-term reliability.
Precision Engineering & High-Speed Productivity
- Full IR CIS Discrimination: Unlike standard counters, the iH-100 utilizes a full-width infrared image sensor to read the unique characteristics of every banknote. This allows for instant recognition of mixed denominations in a single batch—eliminating the need for pre-sorting and reducing manual labor.
- Bank-Grade Processing Power: Engineered for demanding environments, the iH-100 processes mixed currency at speeds up to 1,000 notes per minute (NPM). With a high-capacity 500-note hopper, this machine is built to handle sustained, high-volume counting sessions without overheating or jamming.
- Triple-Defense Anti-Fraud Suite: Protect your bottom line with a multi-layered security system featuring MG (Magnetic), UV (Ultraviolet), and IR (Infrared) detection. The iH-100 automatically identifies and flags suspect banknotes, ensuring the absolute authenticity of your cash flow.
- Innovative Clam-Shell Design: The unique front-loading clam-shell cover provides easy access to the internal sensors for quick cleaning and maintenance—a critical feature for maintaining machine longevity and preventing downtime in dusty retail or vault environments.

1. What is the difference between a bill counter and a currency discriminator?
A standard bill counter is a "piece counter"—it tells you how many pieces of paper went through. A currency discriminator is a "value counter"—it uses digital eyes (CIS) to look at the bill, identify if it’s a $20 or a $100, and give you a total monetary value.
2. Is a currency discriminator better at catching fakes than a cheap counter?
Yes. Standard counters usually only check for magnetic ink or UV glow. Discriminators use Image Recognition, meaning they compare the actual artwork and security features of the bill against a high-resolution database. This is the only reliable way to catch "supernotes" or bleached bills (e.g., a $1 bill reprinted to look like a $100).
3. What does "1+1 Pocket" or "2-Pocket" mean?
This is one of the most searched terms.
- A 1-Pocket machine stops and beeps every time it finds a suspect or "unfit" bill.
- A 2-Pocket (1+1) machine has a separate Reject Pocket. It sends suspect bills to the top pocket while the main count continues without stopping. This is essential for high-volume environments.
4. Can currency discriminators count international money?
Most modern discriminators come with "Multi-Currency" modes. Because they rely on image scanning, they can be programmed to recognize the distinct designs of Euros, Canadian Dollars, British Pounds, and Mexican Pesos, often handling them all in the same stack.
5. Why is my discriminator giving a "CIS Error"?
This is usually a sign that the "eyes" of the machine are dirty. Cash is incredibly dusty; we recommend using cleaning cards or a microfiber cloth weekly to wipe the sensors. If the sensors are blocked by dust, the machine can't "see" the bill to identify it.
