1 INTRODUCTION
The coin T3 hopper has been designed to meet the technical specifications for the payment of
coins that are required by the different applications of the automatic vending of services or
products. The principle characteristics on which its design is based are determined by the
following payout needs: high capacity, security of transaction, speed of the payment for
demanding sectors such as: parking, ticketing and change, among others.
The T3 hopper range is comprised of different models and configurations depending on the
capacity of the hopper, communication protocol and controlling one or two coins in the same
device. The different types of T3 hopper with details on their characteristics and modes of
working are covered in this technical manual.
We have worked closely with the manufacturers of equipment and the end users of these
systems on the design of the T3 hopper, end users like maintenance personnel, also studying
the main characteristics of the products available at present and taking into account their
shortcomings. On the developing this new hopper, we have been able to improve their
performance, as well as adding technical solutions for the optimisation of the capacity and
speed of payment so as to facilitate the integration in the systems within of the application.
ATTENTION:
Read this technical manual carefully
before installing or carrying out any operation on the T3
hopper.
ATTENTION
: There are moving mechanisms inside the
coin hopper that may cause personal injury. If
manipulating the T3 hopper, always make sure that it is
disconnected.
