horizont AN100 Type 10896 Electric Fencer Farmer

Product Information

The product is an electric fencer called “farmer AN100 / AN200 / AN300” manufactured by an unspecified company. It is designed to transmit voltage pulses to a connected pasture fence for the purpose of creating an electric barrier. The fencer can be powered by either a 12V rechargeable battery or a 230V/110V mains adapter.

General Safety Instructions

  • Always switch off the fencer before coming into contact with it.
  • Only use optional additional parts prescribed by the manufacturer.

Description and Construction of the Product
The fencer is responsible for transmitting voltage pulses to the fence. It is important to use the manufacturer-prescribed additional parts for proper operation.

Earthing
Good earthing of the fence is crucial for trouble-free operation and optimal performance. The fence should be earthed at a preferably moist and overgrown location. If the ground is dry and the fence is long, it is recommended to install an additional earth conductor with intermediate earths (every 50m) along the fence.

Installation with a 12V Rechargeable Battery

  1. Connect the 12V rechargeable battery, ensuring clean pole terminals and correct polarity (red + / black -). The device will not start if the polarity is reversed.
  2. Use only rechargeable 12V batteries and charge them in well-ventilated rooms with proper ventilation.
  3. Disconnect the rechargeable battery from the energizer during the charging process.
  4. Recharge the battery before and after every use, as well as during longer periods of storage (every 2 months).
  5. The energizer has an AUTO-ON function, so it starts operating as soon as power is connected.

Installation with a 230V/110V Mains Adapter
Use the specified mains adapter (47PSU0010EU/UK) for the operation of 230V power supply. Connect the mains adapter to the energizer via the mains connection. With the mains adapter, you can easily charge a connected 12V rechargeable battery in parallel operation. In case of a power supply failure, the energizer will be supplied from the rechargeable battery.

Installation with 230V/110V
Simply insert the energizer’s mains plug into the power socket. The energizer has an AUTO-ON function, so it starts operating immediately after connection to the mains network.

Product Usage Instructions

Commissioning
Power supply units: The device starts automatically once it is connected to the power supply. After 1 second, you will hear a rhythmic even ticking of the pulses, indicating that the device is in operation. The energizer will transmit pulses to the fence, and the LED display will light up. If the status LEDs do not light up, it may indicate a defect in the power supply.

Energizer Operating Description
The rechargeable battery indicator on the energizer provides information about the rechargeable battery or battery voltage. Use this indicator to monitor the battery status.

Caution! Only the optional additional parts prescribed by the manufacturer are to be used.

Installation

Installation:

  • The energizer can either be mounted on a wall or on a stable post. The earthing rod (longitudinal rod) must be driven as deeply as possible into the ground at a moist location and connected by a corrosion-resistant wire to the earthing terminal ( ) of the energizer. FIG.
  • Connect the fence cable to the terminal with the lightning symbols ( ) . The energizer is only protected against moisture if it is properly installed. Shield the energizer from direct solar irradiation. Do not operate the energizer when it lies on the ground. Set the energizer up in a location where there is no fire hazard.

Fig. 2 optional:

Earthing:

  • Good earthing of the fence is extremely important for trouble-free operation and optimum performance of the energizer; therefore it should be earthed at a preferably moist and overgrown location.
  • If the ground is dry and the fence is long, an additional earth conductor with intermediate earths (every 50 m) should be installed along the fence.

Installation with a 12V rechargeable battery:
Connect the 12V rechargeable battery (red + / black -), ensure clean pole terminals and correct polarity. The device will not start if the polarity is re-versed.

CAUTION!

  • Only use rechargeable 12 V batteries; only charge rechargeable batteries with ventilation in well-ventilated rooms. Disconnect the rechargeable battery from the energizer during the charging process. The rechargeable battery should be recharged before and after every use as well as during longer periods of storage (every 2 months) and disconnected from the energizer.
  • The energizer has an AUTO-ON function which ensures that as soon as power is connected the energizer starts to operate.

Installation with a 230V/110V mains adapter:

  • For the operation of 230V power supply only use the mains adapter 47PSU0010EU/UK, as specified on the intermediate plate in the device!
  • Connect the mains adapter with the energizer, as described in Fig. 3, via the mains connection 2 . With the mains adapter it is easy to charge a connected 12 V rechargeable battery in parallel operation.
  • If the 230 V/110V supply fails, the energizer is then supplied from the re-chargeable battery.
