Overview
The MEI Talos TR7R2-U5MUS is a U.S.-currency MDB bill validator with integrated recycler designed for redemption kiosks, amusement, and self-service payment systems.

The TR7R2-U5MUS supports dual-denomination recycling (typically $1 and $5), helping reduce coin handling and improving payout efficiency.
