Important safety instructions for
power adaptors
DANGER! RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. INDOOR
LOCATIONS ONLY.
Key to symbols on the energizer
Fence earth terminal. Connect the Fence earth terminal
to the energizer earth system.
Fence earth monitor terminal. Connect the Fence earth
monitor terminal to a separate earth rod.
Fence low energy terminal. For use in areas where a
limit of 1.5 J output energy is desirable (e.g. where
there is likely to be unsupervised children who will be
unaware of the dangers of electric fencing). Connect
the Fence low energy terminal to the fence.
Fence high energy terminal. Connect the Fence high
energy terminal to the main farm fence.
Risk of electric shock! This energizer should be opened
or repaired only by qualified personnel.
Read full instructions before use.
This symbol on the product or its packaging indicates
that this product must not be disposed of with other
waste. Instead, it is your responsibility to dispose of
your waste equipment by handing it over to a
designated collection point for the recycling of waste
electrical and electronic equipment. The separate
collection and recycling of your waste equipment at
the time of disposal will help conserve natural
resources and ensure that it is recycled in a manner
that protects human health and the environment. For
more information about where you can drop off your
waste equipment for recycling, please contact your
local city recycling office or the dealer from whom you
purchased the product.
The energizer has a double-insulated construction.
Energizers marked with this symbol are time delayed
electric fence energizers with a delay time of 20
seconds.
Only use with a Datamars Ltd approved power
adaptor. This must be either the power adaptor
provided with the energizer or a genuine replacement
part supplied by Datamars (see details marked on the
energizer, beside the power inlet).
Definition of special terms
Energizer
– An appliance that is intended to periodically
deliver voltage impulses to a fence connected to it.
Fence
– A barrier for animals or for the purpose of security,
comprising one or more conductors such as metal wires, rods
or rails.
Electric fence
– A barrier which includes one or more electric
conductors, insulated from earth, to which electric pulses are
applied by an energizer.
Fence circuit
– All conductive parts or components within an
energizer that are connected or are intended to be
connected, galvanically, to the output terminals.
Earth electrode
– Metal structure that is driven into the
ground near an energizer and connected electrically to the
fence earth terminal of the energizer, and that is
independent of other earthing arrangements.
Connecting lead
– An electric conductor, used to connect the
energizer to the electric fence or the earth electrode.
Electric animal fence
– An electric fence used to contain
animals within or exclude animals from a particular area.
Requirements for electric animal
fences
In accordance with Annex BB Section BB.1 of IEC
60335-2-76
Electric animal fences and their ancillary equipment shall be
installed, operated and maintained in a manner that
minimises danger to persons, animals or their surroundings.
Electric animal fence constructions that are likely to lead to
the entanglement of animals or persons shall be avoided.
WARNING!
Avoid contacting electric fence wires
especially with the head, neck or torso. Do not climb over,
through or under a multi-wire electric fence. Use a gate or
a specially designed crossing point.
An electric animal fence shall not be supplied from two
separate energizers or from independent fence circuits of the
same energizer.
