This European Standard specifies requirements and tests for deposit systems, and classifies the systems according to their burglary resistance and their resistance to the theft of deposits.
The standard includes design requirements for deposit systems controlled by programmable controllers. In this European Standard, controller hardware testing is restricted to electric motors, sensors, coils and similar devices; software testing is not part of this standard.
Deposit systems may have devices for functions such as user identification and/or counting and registration of money. Tests and classification of such functions are not included in this European Standard.
This European Standard does not cover protection of persons using the deposit system or the prevention of fraud committed by operators of the system.
