PKCell 7.4V ICR18650 Battery Pack for ATM Anti-Theft & Currency Protection Systems
Background / Challenge
ATM anti-theft and currency protection systems—such as ink stain / dye protection systems—require a highly reliable backup power source to ensure operation during unauthorized access, vandalism, or forced entry.
When triggered, these systems must immediately release a non-removable ink or dye onto the banknotes inside the cash cassette, rendering the currency permanently marked and traceable. Any failure in the power supply could result in stolen cash remaining usable.
Key challenges identified included:
- Ensuring the protection system remains operational during power outages or deliberate power disconnection
- Providing long standby power with instant activation when a security breach is detected
- Maintaining high reliability and safety in long-term operation with minimal maintenance
- Meeting international safety and compliance standards required for financial security equipment
The customer required a battery solution where failure is not an option, especially in high-stakes financial security applications.
