FOREWORD
The DRUID LCD energizer should ideally be operated by means of a remote keypad to obtain access to the many energizer features and receive the greatest protection. It can however be operated by means of a Nemtek tab or remote switch.
The energizer display will light with a blue (OFF), green (all is OK), yellow (alarm in history or other medium priority event) or red (active alarm condition exists) background to announce the energizer’s state at a glance and from a distance.
The gate input is functional even when the energizer is not energizing the fence. Use the Gate Alarm Bypass function if this input is to be ignored.
The DRUID LCD energizer includes many user and installer settings. These will be retained in the event of total power loss. i.e. The battery is exhausted during a prolonged mains failure.
A new battery with a full charge will typically provide in excess of 24 hours backup. This time will vary with fence condition though.
The DRUID LCD energizer incorporates an advanced and patented fence voltage regulation, arc detection and avoidance system. What this means is that the fence energy is maintained at a higher level than would normally be achievable using a conventional energizer on the same fence, when factors such as poor or damaged insulators, wet insulators after a rain storm, or salt build up on insulators (at the coast) prevent the fence from supporting a high voltage. A conventional energizer will push all available energy through any arcing that may occur across the insulator, thus reducing the fences effectiveness. The DRUID LCD energizer however will detect the arcing and then attempt to operate the fence at a voltage just below that at which arcing occurs, thus maintaining higher energy levels on the fence and improving the effectiveness of the fence. Nemtek is the inventor and patent holder of this innovative technology.
