Summary of Contents for ketrop BirdOff

  • Page 1: Table Of Contents

    BirdOff is a new product from Ketrop, a leading company in bird and game repellent products. The design was mainly aimed at the nuisance caused by pigeons, although it later turned out that the system is also effective against other bird species.

  • Page 2: Components

    Components The available components of the BirdOff system, below in details: Reactor Voltage regulator Switch with indicator light Mounting holes, 1 on both sides Power input with plug (230V/110V) Output to insulators Each set contains 100 insulators, all identical. The type is of your choice...
  • Page 3  Warning stickers (5 pieces) To be placed at the entrance to the roof and/or location where the BirdOff system is installed.  Non-contact voltage tester (for every installer, not with every set). Do not hold it against the stainless steel wire, otherwise the voltage tester will break! ...

  • Page 4: Preparation

    Make sure that there are no unauthorized persons or animals in the vicinity of the workplace. Above all, never allow children!  Make sure that no one touches the BirdOff system. If necessary, place warning signs to deny unauthorized persons access to the work area.  Never allow yourself to be distracted while working!

  • Page 5: Installation

     Always be aware of your surroundings.  Wear appropriate clothing when testing the Bird Off system while there is voltage.  If you are going to perform maintenance, switch off the BirdOff system. Installation Calculate first, then install! Do not use more than 100 insulators per set.
  • Page 6 Installation THE EXCEPTION: PIGEONS! In case of deterring pigeons, we recommend applying a double line (from the same system) on the roof edge, as shown in the image below. This is because pigeons appear to be less sensitive to this system. Only when the surface is so narrow that the minimum required distance of 5 cm (or 2”) between the lines is not feasible, you are limited to applying a single line.
  • Page 7 Installation The insulators should be placed at approximately an even height on the surface.  The idea is that the wire always fits snugly against the bottom of the thickened part of the insulator. If the wire is pulled from a lower insulator to a higher insulator, the wire may not fit neatly against the edge.
  • Page 8 Installation Wire bridges  If the wire has to go over or around an object, it may be wise to make a wire bridge with double-insulated wire.  Always try to mount the double insulated wire through a spring and twist the stripped wire around the stainless steel wire or use a press sleeve.

  • Page 9: Testing

    Multiple systems at the same location If you are installing more than one BirdOff system in the same location, keep the following in mind:  Install each BirdOff system separately! 1 reactor on 1 system, never multiple.

  • Page 10: Troubleshooting

    Troubleshooting PROBLEM: No EMF (electromagnetic field) is detected. More often the solution is closer than you think. First ask yourself the following questions and check:  Is there power coming from the socket? Was a grounded socket used? Has the earth leakage circuit breaker (safety switch) tripped? Is the reactor connected to the socket? Is the reactor voltage regulator set correctly? Is the circuit mounted clockwise?

  • Page 11: Maintenance Contract

    If you, as an installer, are also the customer/buyer of this product, we recommend that you inform your own customer or client that it is advisable to have the BirdOff system checked regularly. Although the system is durable, it may become damaged and/or malfunction due to weather conditions or incorrect installation.
