  • Pre-paid showers
  • Pre-paid pool/snooker games
  • Pre-paid squash, tennis or badminton games
  • Pre-paid sunbeds/tan can sessions
  • Pre-paid laundry service
  • Prepaid car washes
  • Pre-paid coffee
  • Prepaid gaming (for Xbox, Sony Play Station or any other arcade games)
  • Pre-paid parking / other access control
  • BSI pre-paid solutions make use of electronic devices called Utility Timers.
  • The electronics of the Utility Timers are housed in robust powder-coated metal enclosures with back-lit LCD displays.
    • The type of metal enclosure used for your application depends on the payment type/s you require & the number of units/items that need to be controlled i.e. the number of outputs/channels.
  • Utility Timers are fully configurable via an USB cable and the BSI PC application.
    • Each output/channel can be configured and controlled independently of each of the others.
  • If power fails during operation, the time remaining and system settings will be saved and operation will resume seamlessly once power is restored.
  • A BSI Audit Counter is an optional extra which retains a log of the number of uses for each of the independent outputs/channels.
  • BSI Utility Timers work by turning on power to your specific application (e.g. Squash court lights or washing machines), for a pre-determined length of time, once successful payment has been made by your patron/customer.
    • Your patron/customer would swipe or tag their debit/credit card.
  • The LCD Display on the Utility Timer indicates the cost per minute/cost per use as well the current credit & remaining minutes.
  • Once the pre-determined length of time has elapsed, power to your application will turn off, barring your patron/customer from further accessing/using your facility, utility, product or service.
  • 220V Power Supply with lightning protection supplied as standard.
  • Potential-free Contact relay outputs for low voltage and control applications e.g. boom gate control.
  • 25Amp (220V) solid state relays are supplied as standard and would drive regular electrical loads.
  • Larger electrical loads e.g. Tennis court flood lights or large industrial equipment may require contacters.
  • Please contact us for an accurate quote because your quote will depend on many factors e.g. the number of units you wish to control (outputs/channels).
  • Every application is unique and may require extras e.g. Pre-paid showers require
    solenoid valves.
  • The payment methods that you require will determine the electronic parts needed and the resultant size and type of metal enclosure to house these electronic parts.
  • Payment methods can be made up of one or more of the following: Coins, Notes, Debit/credit card, Zapper™, token or RFID credits.
