Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung (1) zur Prüfung von lumineszierenden Wertdokumenten (BN), insbesonder Banknoten, mit einem Lumineszenzsensor (12), wobei das zu prüfende Wertdokument zur Anregung von Lumineszenzstrahlung bestrahlt und die vom Wertdokument ausgehende Lumineszenzstrahlung spektral aufgelöst erfaßt wird.The invention relates to a method and a device (1) for checking luminescent value documents (BN), in particular banknotes, with a luminescence sensor (12), wherein the value document to be tested is irradiated for exciting luminescence radiation and the luminescence radiation emanating from the value document is detected spectrally resolved ,

Indem das in Transportrichtung (T) am Lumineszenzsensor (12) vorbeitransportierte zu prüfende Wertdokument (BN) mit einer Beleuchtungsfläche (35) beleuchtet wird, die sich in Transportrichtung (T) erstreckt, ist eine effektive Messung auch von Wertdokumenten möglich, die nur sehr wenig Lumineszenzstrahlung emittieren.

Figure imgaf001
By illuminating the document of value (BN) to be tested transported in advance in the transport direction (T) at the luminescence sensor (12) with an illumination surface (35) which extends in the transport direction (T), an effective measurement of value documents is possible, which only very little Emit luminescent radiation.
