IMPORTANT RECOMMENDATIONS

We recommend that this manual is read thoroughly and fully understood before using the device and that it is retained for future reference!

The energizer will provide better protection for your animals and land. Local conditions and surroundings always affect the device’s function and for that reason,, the manufacturer is not able to guarantee full protection against damage to the enclosure fence.
Only use the original 14 V / 1 A adapter to supply the apparatus. The supply voltage must not exceed 16 V. A Controller must be used if the solar panel is used, as the energizer must not be connected directly to the solar panel.
Switch off the apparatus before carrying out any work on the electric enclosure fence.
Read thoroughly the Safety Guidelines paragraph.
Strictly observe all safety guidelines during installation work.
Do not connect the device on one enclosure fence to another appliance. Damage to all connected devices and appliances may occur in the event of a lightning strike.
The device may only be repaired by the manufacturer’s qualified personnel.
Please dispose of of all waste by your country’s code of practice.
Do not let the unconnected battery cable hang freely as the short circuit and the consequent destruction of the energizer may take place.

INTRODUCTION

DeLaval energizers E30BMRC and E75BMRC may be either powered from 230 V mains using a 14 V power supply adapter (included in the package contents) or an appropriate 12 V battery.
The integrated microprocessor fully controls the operation and ensures optimal performance taking into account the condition of the fence system and the current situation. The fence load is continuously measured during the fence systems operation. The energizer power output is then automatically adjusted to keep the required output voltage in the widest possible load range. This control significantly aids in saving energy when using a quality fence system with a low load. It also optimizes energy consumption to maintain adequately high fence system voltage, which is, for example, overgrown with grass (high load).
LED indicator lights and BARGRAF on the front of the energizer show the power supply status and fence system voltage and also signal any potential faults on the fence.

Energizers with power output higher than 5 J

Standard’s special requirements must be observed for energizers with a power output higher than 5 J, namely the time cut-off limit when the power output is increased thus ensuring safety.
Products must be identified by mark.
The energizers have a time cut-off limit of 50 seconds, which means that whilst the fence system is under load and its resistance drops below 500 Ohm (overgrown grass, fallen branches, etc.), the energizer will supply a maximum of 5 J for 50 s. If the fence system resistance does not increase during this time (carrying out corrective measures), the energizer will gradually increase the power output.
Acoustic and visual warning when the fence system is suddenly under load is another feature. If the fence resistance drops abruptly during one pulse from over 1000 Ohm to less than 400 Ohm (fallen branches, tangled animal or human, etc.), an alarm is triggered after six pulses, an acoustic warning, and red LED indicator light flashes. At the same time, the pulse period is shortened to 3 s. The alarm is switched off after increasing the fence resistance to more than 600 Ohm or after the time limit of 10 min. Both functions are independent and separate.

READY TO USE

Choose a place suitable for the installation of an energizer.

where you can achieve a good earthing
that is distant enough from children and animals
where the energizer is well accessible
where a permanent water stream is avoided

To mount the energizer on the wall, use attached screws, on which you can hang the energizer easily.

Energizer must be installed in a dry place.
Never put the energizer on the ground – in a moist or wet environment.
Fasten the energizer using a hanging screw or with a mounting bracket in a vertical position – at least 20 cm above ground.
Never expose the energizer to a continuous water stream.

Earthing

Correct earthing is very important because the total function of the fence system is dependent on it!
Beat the earthing rod with corrosion protection into the ground completely in place with maximum and permanent humidity. On dry pieces of land or in the case of soils with lower electric conductivity, use one or several supplementary earthing rods (with a length of a minimum of 1 m) and place them at a distance of approximately 3 meters from each other.
Exceptions are fence systems powered by battery energizers or working with low output. Here minimum length of earthing rod of 50 cm is recommended.
Distance of at least 10 meters must be between the earthing rod of the fence system and another earthing system, for example, earthing of a house, protective earthing of an electric supply system, or earthing of a violation alarm.
Do not connect the energizer to already existing earthing.

Connecting connectors

The energizers have two waterproof input connectors; the upper one for adapter connection and the lower one for battery connection. Connectors may be wrongly connected thus always make sure that the correct connections take place. This design has a preference for connecting to the mains voltage with the option of connecting to the battery, as a backup power supply in the event of power failure. Running the energizer for a long time just from the battery is not desirable due to the higher energy consumption and low capacity of conventional batteries.

Warning : If the adapter and battery are connected to the wrong connectors, charging and the low battery indication will not work and the battery will not be discharging.

Connecting output terminals

Connect the black earthing output to the earthing rod using an earthing cable.
Connect the red output to the fence system using the connecting cable.

Remote controller

Open the device’s back cover.
Insert the CR2 battery, and take care of the correct polarity.
Return the cover to its original position.
Switch on the controller by a red button in the front.

The remote controller is not waterproof, keep it in a dry place.

After switching on the controller and if no energizers are paired, then diﬀerent device symbols ﬂash alternately on the side of the display. This only means that no energizer has been paired yet. Pairing is described on page 15, chapter 7.2 PAIRING.

- No signal
  On the main screen, the letter E is displayed, and the signal and alarm icon flashes.
General Alarm
Only the alarm icon flashes.
There may be more causes. One of them is a step change in the resistance of the fence. In this case, the fence requires physical inspection.
Press any button on the controller to turn off the sound of the alarm.
The alarm sound can be disabled in the settings.
If the problem is solved (battery replacement, fence repair…), press the alarm button for a longer time,, and the alarm notification will be removed.

EXPLANATION OF LED INDICATING LIGHTS AND LED INDICATOR

LED control:

GLOWING / BLINKING
- blinking operation on battery only
- permanent glowing – operation with adapter
COLOR
- blue operation at higher output (100 %)
- purple operation at lower output (c. 50 %)
- red it lights up when the battery voltage drops below 12 V.

When the battery voltage drops below 11,6 V, a warning siren is started (beeping). When the battery voltage drops below 11,4 V, the energizer is switched off. The reason is the protection of the battery from the deep discharge of the battery (battery destruction). If the discharged battery and adapter are connected simultaneously, the red LED is glowing, until the battery is charged at 12 V at least.

LED INDICATOR:
To indicate input voltage at the fence system, DeLaval energizer E30BMRC or E75BMRC models are equipped with LED indicators. It consists of six LEDs – 2× RED I 2× YELLOW I 2× GREEN – ordered from left to right. LED indicator always goes through LEDs from the first red one up to the indicated position where it stops for a while.
Indicating statuses are as follows:

SAFETY GUIDELINES

Install and operate the electric fence systems in such a way that they do not pose the risk of electric shock to humans, or animals or disturb the environment.
Avoid using electric fence systems that could trap animals or people.
One electric fence system must not be powered by two or more energizers or by independent power supply devices designated for electric fence systems of the same equipment.
When operating two or more different electric fence systems and if they are powered by different energizers, the minimum distance between the electric fences must be 2,5 m. Use electrically non-conductive material if this distance is required to be smaller.
Do not use barbed or razor wire or any other types of sharp-edged wire to install the electric fence system. Non-conductive additional fencing in which barbed or razor wire is used must be at least 150 mm from the electric fence system wire and must be earthed at regular intervals.
All electric fence system sections installed along public roads must be marked with warning signs attached to poles or fences at regular intervals and visible from the road.

Warning sign

It is yellow in colour with minimum dimensions of 100 × 200 mm
It is either a standard warning sign or contains the following Inscription on both sides: ˝ WARNING! ELECTRIC FENCE˝
Letters must be at least 25 mm high and indelible
One warning sign is included in the package contents

Power supply and connecting cables

Cables that are rated for voltages higher than 1 kV and are located in buildings must be effectively insulated from the building’s earthing features. This may be achieved by using insulated high-voltage cables or by leaving an appropriate distance between the cable and the building frame. Do not use standard electrical cables.
Cables that are laid in the ground (soil) must be protected by solid insulator pipes or use insulated high-voltage cables designed for this purpose. Make sure that the cables will not be damaged by, for example,, animal hooves or tractor wheels, which can sink into the ground. Do not use standard electrical cables.
Cables must not be placed in pipes together with other circuit, communication,, or data cables. Supply and connecting leads and electric line of fence system:
Shall not cross above overhead power or communication lines. Crossings with overhead power lines shall be avoided wherever possible. If such a crossing cannot be avoided it shall be made underneath the power line and as nearly as possible at right angles to it.
If are installed near an overhead power line, the clearances shall not be less than those shown.
- Power line voltage: ≤ 1000 V 3
- Clearance: 3 metres
- Power line voltage: > 1000 ≤ 33000 V
- Clearance: 4 metres
- Power line voltage: > 33000 V
- Clearance: 8 metres
If are installed near an overhead power line, their height above the ground shall not exceed 3 m. This height applies to either side of the orthogonal projection of the outermost conductors of the power line on the ground surface, for a distance of:
2 m for power lines operating at a nominal voltage not exceeding 1000 V
15 m for power lines operating at a nominal voltage exceeding 1000 V
Being near a telephone line or telephone cable must be conducted at a distance of a minimum of 2 meters.

Electric animal fences intended for deterring birds household pet containment or training animals such as cows need only be supplied from low output energizers to obtain satisfactory and safe performance.

In electrical animal fences intended for deterring birds from roosting on buildings no fence wire shall be grounded if the fence wires are not connected to metal parts. If one wire is connected with a metal part (i.e., a gutter) or a metal structure of the building these metal parts must be grounded. A warning sign shall be fitted to every point where persons may gain ready access to the conductors.

Where an electric animal fence crosses a public pathway, a non-electrified gate shall be incorporated in the electric animal fence at that point or a crossing by means of stiles shall be provided. At any such crossing, the adjacent electrified wires shall carry warning signs.

Avoid direct contact with fencing, especially with head, neck or upper part of body. Do not creep through the fencing or over it. For passing the fence system, use a gate or another point in installation designed for this purpose.

Generally, we recommend connecting network powered electric fence system only to such supply networks that are protected with earth-leakage circuit breaker with maximum actuating current of 30 mA. In addition to that, correct installation of energizer with auxiliary discharger and choking coil is necessary, as described within these instructions. It is suitable to disconnect network supplied electric fence system from network as well as from fencing (if possible) during storm.

If a network with earth-leakage circuit-breaker was not used for purposes of supplying energizer, and the energizer was connected to the fence system or the network during storm, it is necessary to check and test it before putting it into operation again.

For this purpose, connection to network with earth-leakage circuit-breaker must be available. For purposes of testing, connect earthing output of energizer to protective conductor of the supply network and connect pin to power socket protected with earth-leakage circuit-breaker then. If energizer beats correctly and does not show any deviations from normal operation subsequently, it can be connected to fence system again. If the earth-leakage circuit-breaker however falls out when energizer is connected, you must not use it and it must be repaired professionally.

If connecting lines of this energizer are damaged, they must be replaced by manufacturer or authorized service or another qualified person so that possibility of danger is excluded. Service and repairs of these energizer must be performed by authorized persons only!

Each user of electric fence system is responsible for its operation and should perform regular checks of energizer and fence system at least once a day, depending on operating conditions

The procedure of checking:

Visual control of energizer and fence system
Measuring of minimum voltage of 2500 V in every place of the fence system

If installation is performed inside a building, energizer may not be operated in a room with increased risk of fire in any case (barn, shed, cattle shed). In addition to that, no combustible materials may be stored near to fence system and connectors of energizer. Installation of energizer must be made on a fire-resistant surface.

For stable using, use only energizer designed for that purpose!

Do not connect battery or accumulator energizers to electric power network or devices being connected to network voltage, except for sources determined to that by the manufacturer, in any case. This energizer may not be used by persons (including children) who have limited physical, perceptive or mental abilities or do not possess sufficient experiences and knowledge, when they are not under supervision or are not trained for operating energizer by persons who are responsible for their safety. Children should be under supervision so that there is not chance that they play with the energizer.

Ensure that all connected network supplied auxiliary circuits have at least the same protection class as energizer.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If the fence does not give a pulse or the voltage is below 3 kV and the red LED on the BARGRAF is flashing, then the causes listed below need to be checked.

Cause	Fault removal
Energizer does not work?	Disconnect the device from the

fence system and switch it on again! If blue or violet LED is glowing and yellow or green LED is flashing on LED indicator, then the device works properly. Otherwise, the device is damaged (con- tact your salesman). When using battery and accumulator devices, observe correct wiring of poles.
Red LED light is blinking| Battery voltage decreased below 12 V – replace the batte- ry with a sufficiently charged one or connect adapter.
Red LED light is blinking and warning siren sounds (beeping)| Battery voltage decreased below 11,6 V – replace the batte- ry with a sufficiently charged one or connect adapter.
No LED signal is glowing| Energizer is switched off manually or battery voltage decreased below 11,4 V and energizer was switched off automatically. Reason is protection of battery from its deep discharge (and battery destruction). Replace the battery with a sufficiently charged one or connect adap- ter – until battery voltage reaches at least 12 V, red LED will be glowing.
Lead-in or short circuit of supply lines of the fence system| Do not use conventional cables for supply lines. Highvolt- age cable is recommended.
Conductor has adverse properties (thin diame- ter, high resistance)| Use high-quality conductor with low resistance and larger diameter. Ensure high-quality correct connection of con- ductors.
Low-quality earthing, too short earth rod, corrosion, dry soil| Add next rod, moisten.
Lead-in via growth near fence system| Remove the growth (mow it).
Conductor on ground (for example break, insufficient mechanical tension)| Repair fencing, use special connectors, stretch conductor.
Too long fence system. Was correct accessories used for given purpose?| Use accessories suitable for given length of fence system and for animals – in case of need, consult specialized sa- lesman.
Insulator pierces, losses occur| Replace defective and weather-worn insulators.
Conductor is connected via knot, insufficient connection| Use relevant special connectors for the conductor.
Remote controller doesn´t work| Empty battery. Replace it with a new one. Put with correct polarity.
