1.0.Introduction
The ACR350 Secure Validator is designed specifically for
Automatic Fare Collection (AFC) systems to offer the
convenience of cashless and secure payment in buses, ferries,
trams, railways and other transportation modes.
The bus validator enables high-speed transaction processing and
records collection through 13.56 MHz contactless (RFID)
technology. It supports ISO 14443 Type A and B cards,
MIFARE®, and FeliCa. Being certified with PCI PTS 5.1 with
SRED, major payment standards such as PBOC Level 1
(Contactless) and EMV™ Levels 1 and 2 (Contactless) including
MasterCard® Contactless and Visa PayWave® offers flexibility
and security to adapt an open loop payment system. An
embedded barcode scanner enables transactions through the
use of print or mobile barcodes or other QR payment application.
It has advanced wireless connectivity options for data transfer such as GSM/GPRS, 3G/4G, and Wi-Fi.
With an optional GNSS feature, it can also locate vehicles, manage fleets and set flexible distance-
based fares. Protecting the bus validator from harsh environments is its IK08 rating for mechanical
impact, IP65 rating for dust and water protection and the additional Military Standard MIL-STD-810 for
Shock and Vibration.
