The DRUID LCD 2x energizer should ideally be operated by means of a remote keypad to
obtain access to the many energizer features and receive the greatest protection. It can
however be operated by means of a Nemtek tab or external switch.
The energizer includes many user and installer settings. These will be retained in the event
of total power loss. i.e. the battery is exhausted during a prolonged mains failure.
The energizer can be configured as a master only 2 zone installation, or as a master and
slave networked 4 zone installation. Only a master energizer can communicate with
keypads and other devices present on the keypad bus.
A set of jumpers positioned above each of the three energizer relays, allow the relay
contacts to be configured as either wet (providing 12V nominal power) or dry (potential
free) contacts.
The energizer display will light with a blue (OFF), green (all is OK), yellow (alarm in history
or other medium priority event) or red (active alarm condition exists) background to
announce the energizer’s state at a glance and from a distance.
The DRUID LCD energizer incorporates an advanced and patented fence voltage
regulation, arc detection and avoidance system. What this means is, the fence energy is
maintained at a higher level than would normally be possible using a conventional
energizer on the same fence, when factors such as poor or damaged insulators, wet
insulators after a rain storm, or salt build up on insulators (at the coast) prevent the fence
from supporting a high voltage. A conventional energizer will push all available energy
through any arcing that may occur across the insulator, thus reducing the fence’s
effectiveness. The DRUID LCD energizer however will detect the arcing and then attempt
to operate the fence at a voltage just below that at which arcing occurs, thus maintaining
higher energy levels on the fence and improving the effectiveness of the fence. Nemtek is
the inventor and patent holder of this innovative technology.
