PERIMETER
SECURITY

APPLICATION:

PerimeterMAX™, the durable and low­maintenance lethal electrified fence
system that ensures maximum perimeter
security utilizing 5100 volts of electrical
power. This physical and psychological
deterrence reduces the need for manned
towers on the perimeter. Alarms, system
design and entry/exit procedures ensure
the safety of facility personnel and
maintenance workers. No escapes or
deaths have occurred with the
PerimeterMAX™ system since the first
installation in 1995.

FUNCTION:

ALARMS ­Alarms are communicated to the PLC
system for conditions such as intrusion,
loss of voltage due to cut wires, or
shorted wires. Officers are automatically
alerted of alarms by a voice paging
system. The computer provides real time
status and maintains and reports a log of
system events. The exclusive Interlock
Panel technology used in each Zone
energizes and de-energizes the fence
using redundant protocol for safe access
in and out of the electrified fence area.

SAFETY:

Access to secured areas is restricted to
perimeter sallyports, where vehicles and
pedestrians can safely pass into and out
of the facility. A glass barrier is installed
at the end of each zone bordering the
sallyport to protect against accidental
contact with the fence.

guarantee safe operation.
All alarms are tested
individually and confirmed.
A thorough training and
testing program is provided
for facility staff to assure
safe operation, even under
the most stressful
conditions.

ZONE DESIGN:

PerimeterMAX™

configures an electrified
fence installed and isolated
for safety between two
standard fences. Zone
Control is customized to
each facility’s perimeter,
and easily designed to
match existing
configurations. Each Zone
contains a control cabinet,
which generates the

required system voltage
and constantly monitors
electrical current to prevent
false alarms, a common
problem with many other
perimeter fence systems.

The PerimeterMAX™
system is reliable with low
maintenance and little
down time, typically 4-5
days per year for
preventive maintenance
and safety checks.
Operational costs are kept
at a minimum for electricity
required to power the
system – no more than it
takes to operate a
household television and
hair dryer. Replacement
parts are non-proprietary
and can be purchased from
local sources, saving
maintenance dollars.

Upon commissioning, a complete test of
the safety interlock system, for the gates
and grounding, is conducted by an
independent testing company to
