Product Information

The product is the turbomax AN800 Electric Fencer, also known as Type 10749. It is a device used for electric fencing. The energizer operates on either a 230V or 12V power supply. It has specific terminals for connecting the ground wire and the fence wire. The energizer has LED indicators to display information about the battery status and fence condition. It also features a delay effect, which allows for optimal fence voltage and safe energy output.

Product Usage Instructions

  1. Mounting and Connection:
    • Mount the energizer vertically.
    • For 12V operation:
    • Connect the ground wire to the terminal with the grounding symbol ( ).
    • Connect the fence wire to the terminal with the lightning symbol ( ).
    • For 230V / 12V operation:
    • Establish the power supply connection.
    • After 1 second, a LED and warning signal test will begin (LED 1 – 6, from left to right) – see Fig. 3.
  2. Startup:
    • For 230V operation:
    • Connect the power supply. After 1 second, the LED indicators will show the test results (LED 1 – 6, from left to right).
    • For 12V operation:
    • The battery indicator (5) will light up:
    • Steady red light = Battery empty, see external battery indicator (5) for recharging.
  3. Delay Effect:
    • An energizer with a delay symbol has a delay time of approximately 55 seconds before supplying energy of more than 5 Joules.
    • During the 55 seconds delay, the LED will flash red.
    • After 55 seconds, the LED will stay steady red.
    • If the fence system resistance drops below a necessary voltage, the energy will increase after approximately 55 seconds.
    • If the fence system resistance rises again, the energy will be reduced to a safe level (lower than 5 joules) and the LED will turn green.
  4. Abnormal Operation:
    • A higher energy output can be expected on a fence with low resistance or after rainfall, vegetation growth, or fence contact.
    • The LED indicator (3) will show:
    • Green = Standard pulse
    • Red = Increased pulse energy in case of fence contact or deviation after the delay time
  5. Grounding:
    • To ensure proper operation and optimal output, good grounding is crucial.
    • Use three earth stakes (1.5m length) placed in a moist and overgrown area.
    • For long fences and dry soil, use a ground return wire with intermediate groundings every 50m.
  6. Testing Grounding:
    • Produce a short circuit by touching a metal stake against the fence wire (no plastic) at a distance of approximately 50m from the energizer.
    • Max. 2 lamps should shine for wet ground, or 3 lamps for dry ground. If not, drive in more stakes.
  7. Service:
    • Only qualified service personnel should perform servicing.
    • Use only manufacturer-recommended replacement parts.
    • If the supply cord is damaged, replace it with a special supply cord recommended by the manufacturer.

Operating

Operating instruction for electric fence controller turbomax AN800 in connection with safety hints SECURA ANIMAL or SECURA SECURITY (www.horizont.com/securaanimal. or www.horizont.com/securasecurity)

Installation and connection

  • 230V : The installation is to be made at a location protected from weather and where there is no risk of fire. The energizer must be mounted in a vertical position.
  • 12V : The controller can be mounted alternatively onto a wall or a solid post. The energizer must be mounted in a vertical position. The controller is water protected only when being installed acc. the instructions. Prodect from bright sunshine. Do not operate the energizer when laying on the ground.

230V 12V Connect the earth connection cable to the earth terminal . Connect the fence connection cable to the fence terminal .

Operating and control

  • 230V : Plug the mains cable in a 230 V supply socket. After 1 second starts a test of LEDs and warning signal (LED 1 – 6, left to right) – see Fig. 3. After this test, LEDs 1-6 goes out and an acoustic warning signal will be generated and after 1 second a slight tic-tac can be heard. The unit operates. The indication CONTROL (4) is illuminated green.
  • 12V Connect the battery cable to the socket (Fig. 1a). Connect the controller to a 12V wet battery (red + / black -), ensure that the terminals are absolutely clean and the polarity is correct. Use only rechargeable 12V- lead-acid batteries, during charging lead-acid batteries must be placed in a well-ventilated area.

Press the switch (Fig. 1b). After 1 second starts a test of LEDs and warning signal (LED 1 – 6, left to right) – see Fig. 3. After this test, LEDs 1-6 goes out and an acoustic warning signal will be generated and after 1 second a slight tic-tac can be heard. The unit operates. In case of wrong polarity the controller will not operate.

The battery indicator light (5) is illuminated:

  • permanent green = battery is fully charged
  • flashing red / green = battery must be charged
  • permanent red = battery is empty the controller switches off !

230V ** / 12V : The 6 LEDs (1) indicate the fence voltage in 1000V steps. At least 3 lamps should flash (3000V) to ensure sufficient voltage and fencing.
Possible reasons, when the voltage is too low:**

  • a) with fence: heavy vegetation on the fence, insulator flash-over or fence too long.
  • b) without fence: the energizer is faulty, see service.

Combined operation (230V + 12V ):
The energiser is connected to a 12V battery and the 230 mains. If the 230V fails and is not available the energiser is supplied by the battery the indication CONTROL (4) changes from green to red.

Attention:
the battery will not be charged automatically by the energiser see the battery indicator light (5) recharge external !

230V / 12V :
Internal alarm with optical and sound warning signal: A fence contact or a change of the fence load from >1000 ohms to a fence load below 400 ohms for at minimum 6 pulses will be indicated by an optical ( LED 2 ) and sound warning signal for up to 10 minutes min. – even though the contact remains longer. For security reasons the pulse frequence will also rise up to 3 seconds min. for this period. When the load of the fence during the alarm giving increases again, the alarm ends, and the pulse rate operates in the original range again. The warning signal is expected particularly after rainfall and can get activated by vegetation growth, trees or branchesfalling into the fence system, dirt at the fence system, short circuit at metal posts or by contacting bodies etc. In case of alarm turn off the energizer and walk around the fence for controlling.

DELAY – effect:
The energizer with a delay symbol has a delay time of approx. 55 seconds before it can supply energy of more than 5 Joules. With normal circumstances the energizer operates with optimal fence voltage but with reduced safe energy lower than 5 Joules. If the resistance of the fence system drops down below a necessary fence voltage (keep cattle) the energy rises after approx. 55 seconds.

  • during this 55 seconds = flash light – red
  • after 55 seconds = steady light – red

If the resistance of the fence system rises up again the energy will reduced to a safe energy lower than 5 joules LED (3) = green. A higher energy output can be expected on a fence with a low resistance. It also can be expected after rainfall, vegetation  growth, brench or tree is laying on the fence, short circuit at metal posts or by contacting bodies.

The indication is illuminated depending upon the fence condition:

  • green = standard puls
  • red = increased pulse energy into the fence ie in case of fence contact – vegetation or other deviation after delay time

Abnormal operation:
To prevent unallowed pulse energies from the fence a pulse sequence control is available. Reduces the pulse sequence below 1 second, the controller switches off automatically and the LED (6) is illuminated red. Possible reason: power surge, lightning flash, permenant fence sparks or energiser defect. In case of abnormal operation, switch off the energizer (power supply remove). After the reconnection of the energiser, the red lamp (6) must be extinguished. In another case, the energiser is defect and the repair service must be involved.

Grounding: For a faultless operation and to obtain best possible output a good grounding is very important. Therefore the grounding must be made at a rather moist and overgrown place. 3 pcs of earth stakes (1,5 m length) shall be used. With long fences  and on dry soil a ground return wire with intermediate groundings (every 50 m) is necessary.

Testing grounding (Fig. 3):
Produce with a metal stake against the fence wire (no plastic) a short circuit (ca. 50m distance to fencer). Max. 2 lamps (wet ground) or 3 lamps (dry ground) may shine. Otherwise drive in more stakes.

Service:
Servicing is only to be made by qualified service personell. Only by the manufacturer commanded replacement parts must be used. If the supply cord of this energizer is damaged this cord must be replaced by a special supply cord which is recommended by the manufacturer.
