DRUID
INSTALLATION NOTES:
1) Use high voltage insulation wire between the fence and energizer,
including the earth wire. Never run these wires in the same conduit or
through the same hole as the low voltage wiring.
2) Always use ferrules or line clamps to connect two high voltage
wires together. Avoid using different types of material for connections
like copper on steel.
3) The fence must be earthed properly with at least one earth
electrode as close as possible to the energizer. The distance between
the fence earth electrode and other earth systems shall be not less
than 10m.
4) Do not try to modify the unit. Any unauthorized modifications will
null and void the warranty and possibly render the unit illegal.
5) To connect the energizer to a radio alarm transmitter or alarm panel
use an isolation relay between the siren output and the panel.
Never use the energizer battery to power a radio alarm transmitter or
alarm panel (see 4).
6) The siren output can maximum be loaded with a 15W siren (1.25
Amps).
7) The strobe output can maximum be loaded with a strobe which will
draw less than 0.5 Amps.
8) The wires to the gate input can be up to 100m long but must not run
in parallel with the fence wires. The gate input must be connected to a
normally closed contact when the gate is closed.
9) Keep the high voltage wires to the fence separate from the mains,
gate, siren and strobe wiring.
10) When replacing the lid of the energizer hook the top in first while
holding it at an angle and then push it closed at the bottom. Fasten
the lid down with the two cap screws.
11) Always test the fence alarm for a short and open-circuit after
installation at the furthest point on the fence.
12) Do not use the energizer with Non-rechargeable batteries and any
lead-acid batteries must be placed in a well-ventilated area during
charging.
13) The unit contains a sealed lead-acid battery that will vent to the
atmosphere under certain conditions. For this reason it is imperative
that the energizer be installed in a well ventilated area.
14) Refer to the applicable laws concerning the installation of electric
fences.
