The Pacemaker Farebox is a simple yet highly secure onboard farebox designed for small vehicles like paratransit buses and vans. With cash- and ticket-only fares, the Pacemaker is a non-registering farebox that provides the simplest and most cost-effective fare collection solution.
The small footprint of the Pacemaker can stand individually or be mounted to a pole for even more space saving.
The Pacemaker accepts only cash and tokens, in the form of paper bills or coins, as well as printed tickets. The Pacemaker can hold up to $100 in bills and $350 in coins.
The 180-degree fare inspection window allows driver verification of the correct fare, while a simple handle tips the plate into the secure cashbox. The acceptance slot is specially engineered to prevent pilfering. This enables a low-cost, low-tech solution that can reduce fare abuse, like pass-back fraud.
The Pacemaker is made of 16 gauge stainless steel with a bolt lock and high security stainless steel key entry.
The Pacemaker onboard farebox is engineered to be very low maintenance. The reduction of moving parts and electronic components makes the Pacemaker a simple, mechanical solution with few parts ever needing repair or replacement.
