Maintaining your Electric Fence
Congratulations, you are now the owner of a high­quality Elephant Electric Fence. To obtain the maximum benefit from your Elephant Electric Fence for as many years as possible, it is important that you give the product the best possible operating conditions. When the device is in operation it can run both indoors and outdoors, and has no problems withstanding difficult weather conditions with heavy precipitation and significant temperature fluctua­tions. This is because the “inbuilt” heating from the device’s modest power consumption is sufficient to keep the electronic components free of moisture. When the device is not in operation it should be stored indoors under stable temperature conditions. You must therefore not allow your electric fence to hang outdoors for long periods without power, as moisture and condensation will act very quickly (particularly during the winter) to damage PCBs and electronic components, which will thus destroy the
electric fence. To give your electric fence extra protection against wind and weather, you must not cover the electric fence with, for example, a plastic bag. This will have the effect that the electric fence is unable to breathe. In many instances moisture will be created, with the consequence that the electric fence’s electronic components will be damaged in a very short time (2-6 months). Battery fences and mobile fences that are connected to batteries (with an acid content) must be protected so that steam from the battery does not come into contact with the electronic components in the electric fence. If an electric fence breaks down because of the above, the guarantee is rendered invalid.
Vedligeholdelse af Elhegn
Tillykke – du er nu indehaver af et Elephant kvalitets-elhegn. For at du kan have glæde af dit Elephant elhegn i så mange år som muligt, er det vigtigt, at du giver produktet optimale vilkår. Når apparatet er i drift, kan det fungere såvel indendørs som udendørs, og kan uden problemer tåle vanskelige vejrforhold med kraftig nedbør og store temperaturudsving. Dette skyldes at ”egen” opvarmningen fra apparatets beskedne strømforbrug er tilstrækkelig til at holde elektronikken fri for fugt. Når apparatet ikke er i drift, bør det opbevares inden­for under konstante temperaturforhold. Du må altså ikke i længere tid lade dit elhegn hænge udenfor uden strøm, da fugt og kondens meget hurtigt (specielt i vinter perioden) så vil være medvirkende til at nedbryde printplader og elektroni­kkomponenter, og dermed ødelægge elhegnet. For at beskytte dit elhegn ekstra mod vind og vejr, må du ikke tildække elhegnet med fx. en plastic pose, der bevirker at elhegnet ikke kan ånde. Der opstår i mange tilfælde fugt med den følgevirkning at elhegnets elektronikkomponenter nedbrydes på meget kort tid (2-6 måneder). Batterihegn og mobile hegn der tilsluttes batterier (med syre indhold), skal beskyttes så dampene fra batteriet ikke kommer i forbindelse med elektronik­ken i elhegnet. Såfremt et elhegn går i stykker på grund af oven­stående, bortfalder garantien.
Skötsel av elstängsel
Grattis – du är nu innehavare av ett kvalitets Elephant elstängsel. För att du ska ha nytta av ditt Elephant elstängsel i så många år som möjligt, är det viktigt att du ger produktet optimala villkår. När apparaten är i drift, kan den fungera både inom­och utomhus, och kan utan problem tåla olika väder typer, som kraftig nederbörd och stora temperatur svängningar. Detta beror på att apparatens ”eget” beskedna
strömförbruk är tillräklig att hålla elektroniken fugtfri. När apparaten inte är i drift, bör det förvaras inom­hus i konstant temperatur. Du skall alltså inte låta ditt elstängsel hänga utomhus i längre tid utan ström, då fugt och kondens väldigt snabbt (speciellt i vinter perioden) vill medverka till att nedbryta kredskort och elektronik komponenter, och dermed förstöra elstängsel. För att skydda ditt elstängsel extra mot vind och nederbörd, får du inte täcka över elstängsel med t.ex. en plastpåse, det måsta kunna andas. Det bliver i många tillfällen fugt, med den effekt att elstängsets komponenter nedbryts på mycket kort tid (2-6 mån). Batteri stängsel och mobila stängsel som tillkopplas batterier (med syra innehåll) skall skyddas så att ångorna från batteriet inte kommer i kontakt med elektroniken i elstängslet. Skulle ett elstängsel gå sønder på grund av oven­stående bortfaller garantin.
Entretien de votre électrificateur
Félicitations ! Vous venez d’acquérir un électrificateur ELEPHANT de haute qualité. Afin de pouvoir profiter de votre électrificateur ELEPHANT pendant de nombreuses années, il est important que vous l’utilisiez dans des conditions optimales. Lorsqu’il est en service, l’électrificateur peut fonctionner à l’intérieur comme à l’extérieur et résiste sans problème aux mauvaises conditions météorologiques, avec de fortes averses et de grands changements de température. Et ce, grâce au chauffage « intégré » lié à la modeste consommation de l’électrificateur, qui suffit pour maintenir le circuit électronique à l’abri de l’humidité. Lorsque l’électrificateur n’est pas en service, il convient de le ranger à l’intérieur, à une température constante. Autrement dit, ne laissez pas votre électrifica­teur sans électricité à l’extérieur pendant une durée prolongée : le cas échéant, l’humidité et la condensation contribueront trés rapidement (surtout l’hiver) à la dégradation des cartes de circuits imprimés et des composants électroniques et donc à l’endommagement de votre électrificateur. Il est interdit de couvrir votre électrificateur à l’aide, par exemple, d’un sac en plastique pour le protéger d’avantage contre les intempéries. Le cas échéant, cela empêcherait l’électrificateur de respirer. Souvent, de l’humidité se forme et entraîne alors en trés peu de temps (deux à six mois) une dégradation des composants électroniques de l’électrificateur. Les électrificateurs sur batterie et les électrificateurs portables raccordés à des batteries (à acide) doivent être protégés, afin que les vapeurs dégagées par la batterie n’entrent pas en contact avec le circuit électronique de l’électrificateur. Tout endommagement de l’électrificateur découlant des conditions décrites ci-dessus annule la garantie.
Herzlichen Glückwunsch Congratulations Tillykke · Grattis · Félicitations
Installation of ELEPHANT Energizer
Before you start the installation of the controller it is important that the instructions are studied carefully. A correct installation is essential if you want an optimal functionality of your Energizer.
Earth Connection
In order that your electric fence generates the best possible shock, it is important that the connection to earth is perfect. An earth rod is usually 2 m long and produced in 20-25 mm galvanised iron pipe. It is recommended that the earth rod be inserted at least 1.5 m into the earth. The connection from the energizers earth clamp to the earth rod can be a piece of galvanised fence wire. You can also use a high­voltage cable. Never use a standard electrical cable. Secure the connection to the earth rod with a stainless collar band or a stainless/ galvanised steel bolt.
See also “Testing your fence/earth connection”.
The connection to the fence
If the Energizer is placed a long distance from the fence, the use of high-voltage cable is recommended to connect the fencing clip on the controller to the wire connection. Especially in tunnels or alongside buildings high-voltage insulated fencing cable must be used. Normal electric wire must never be used.
Testing your fence/earth connection
At least a 100 mtrs away from the earthing system, measure with a digital voltmeter (art. nr.:4002227) if the current is more than 3000 V. Create a short circuit by putting iron posts against the fence-wire. If the current measured on the earthing system is more than 300V more earthing rods need to be placed (distance 3 mtrs). Repeat the test.
Possible faults
• Poor earth connection
See how to create a perfect earth connection under “Testing your fence/earth connection”.
• Poor wire joints
Poor insulators, especially on iron poles. Spark flashover on a fence pole can often be heard clearly. If the connection to earth, wire joints and insulators is in working order, you can assume that the fence is generating an even current all around the enclosure.
Guarantee
If your electric fence is not working properly, you must dismantle it and return it to where you bought it. Remember to bring your receipt. Electric fences that are less than 3 years old are repaired free of charge, on the condition that the damage has not been caused by unauthorised intervention or by the device having been connected to an incorrect voltage. The guarantee does not cover misuse, neglect or lightening damage. There is no guarantee or compensation for indirect damage.
Installation of Solar system on A25
The ELEPHANT SOLAR system consists of a Solar Module, 2 angle clamps (45 degrees) and a protection box.
Disconnect the connection to the fence wire. Assemble the protection box and the 2 angle
clamps (left+right) upon. Connect the 12V cable to the wet battery.
(Red = + ) Connect the cable from the solar module to the wet
battery. (Red = + ) The solar module should befacing south Establish the connection to the fence wire Turn the ON/OFF switch ON and the system will
start working. The system will work steadily from March to October. During the season’s extremes (beginning/end) it is wise to keep an eye on the indicator. If the time gap between flashes is more than 3 seconds, light intensity is no longer sufficient.
Important!
During periods when the appliance is not in use, it is important the battery is kept charged. Therefore, place the appliance there where the solar cell can occupy the most daylight. The power switch must be in the disconnected position
