THE “STINGER” BS120 SECURITY FENCE ENERGISER.

This user friendly unit has been designed for ease of operation, reliability and Simple operation of the

controls.

A fully computer controlled and integrated perimeter protection system with multiple units is easy to

assemble.

The unit has the following features:

A novel alarm monitoring system (SA Patent No. 99/5728)capable of protecting up to 20 zones. An

alarm condition will occur if the fence live wire is either cut or short circuited during 3 consecutive

pulses in the same zone.

The HV monitor system ensures stable zone information with no drift due to temperature or

corrosion.

Zone programming is very simple.

Fence Voltage can be switched to ”Low Voltage” (800V) or ”High Voltage”(8500V)

A warning will be given if the fence voltage drops below a level of 3000V due to a system fault.

All controls are located on the remote control unit. Communication between this unit and the

energiser is via a RS485 data link (4 core comms cable), via an RF link or via fibre optic cable.

Multiple Remote Control Units can be connected to one BS120 unit, in which case any control unit can

be programmed to be the ”Master” control unit or a ”Slave” control unit. 

The remote control unit can address up to 13 energizers. If multiple energizers are selected,

synchronization can be automatically applied.

A UHF Transceiver with anti-collision facility can be supplied for bi-directional data

communication over distance s up to 4 km.

Windows 95/98/2000/NT/XP software is available to interface up to 125 

Energizers to a PC via a RS485 data cable, RF data transceivers, or fibre optic

cable.

Up to 125 Site maps can be stored. To enable security control of different sites by

one computer.

The output voltage of each energizer can be viewed at the LCD Panel and will also be

logged via the computer program.

The software allows for pulse synchronisation of multiple BS120 units.

The zones have to be series wired and must be series connected to each other.

The start and end points of the fence and the fence ground are the only

connections to the energizer. An additional feature is that the fence is powered from

both ends.

An auto-reset facility is available and can be enabled or disabled. The unit will

automatically try to reset an alarm after 3 minutes. If successful, the alarm was

apparently a nuisance alarm and no further action is required.

Earthing practice

The above picture indicates how earthing should be done. This

picture only shows the earthing required to protect the energizer

against lightning. General fence earthing depends on external

factors like ground conduction etc.

Zone length: The best results will be obtained it the difference in

zone resistance is not more than 50%

INSTALLATION TIPS:

The following tips will help to facilitate installation.

1 Using the best type of bobbins and strain insulators will result in a trouble

free installation. E.g. Stinger strain insulators and Stinger intermediate bobbins.

2 Using low resistance aluminum wire will result in effective shock delivery.

3 Grounding the fence at regular intervals results in high stability and better

shock delivery .

4 Early morning false alarms occur due to arcing. Check the fence currents

with the display unit in the Power mode. If the HV1 and HV2 values are

unstable, there is a weak point somewhere at the fence. (Cracked bobbin,

too short wire spacing at stays etc.).

5 Keep HT wires away from communication- and power cables.

6 Underground HT Cables should be mounted inside irrigation tubing/conduit.

7 If the distance between the fence and the location of the energizer is long,keep the

two HT wires separated by 200mm. Use braided bare copper for the ground wire,

burying it directly in the ground. This will ensure the best eathing possible.

If the distance between energizer and control unit is more than 10 meters, it is wise

to mount a copper braided cable together with the comms cable.Ground this copper

cable at both end points.

The following table shows the effect of the type of fence wire used in relation to

practically obtainable distances.

*The value L(1/2V) is that length of live wire, where half of the energizer output

voltage drops across the fence wire and the other half across a person touching

thewire at distance L(1/2V). (Equals to only 25% of the potential energy at the

energizer output. This value relates to any energizer being used. The

resistance of ahumanbody has been standardized at 500 Ohms.)

8 Fence monitor lights : Recommended maximum three per BS120 Energizer, as each

fence monitor light draws +-0,4J.

FENCE WIRING EXAMPLES

It is important to always loop the earth wires together at each zone

split.This will ensure maximum energy transfer.

For extremely long fences, or in situations where the fence

resistance becomes excessive high, wires can be connected

inparallel. It is in this case important that the parallel connections

are repeated at the end of each zone as shown above.

For more information please refer to “Stinger Specification for construction of

electric fencing” available on request.

Long fences can be operated with multiple energizers, provided these units are

synchronized.

Stinger has SABS approval for such a system. Each energizer can feed one live wire.

The advantage of this system is that no trenching, cabling or solar panels are required,

as all units are located inside the guard house.

An additional advantage is the fact that the fence is much more secure in case of one

of the energizers failing.

Fences with a total circumference of 10 Km have been wired according to this system.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Zone programming

Before starting, check the following fence conditions (with the HV wires

disconnected):

1. The DC resistance of the HV loop must be lower than 1200 Ohms.

2. The DC resistance between GND and the live wires must be higher than

100000 Ohms.

Programming

1. Switch the Energizer on to High Voltage Mode.

2. Press the “Program” button for 5 seconds. If the buzzer sounds, there is

a fence problem, which must be solved first. The problem may be a short

circuit or arcing.

3. Make a short circuit at zone split 1-2 (use the cable with crocodile clips),

the buzzer will sound, press the “Accept” button briefly.

4. Repeat step 3 until all zones have been programmed. After the last zone

press “Program” again to leave this routine. The remote control unit will

indicate the program status.

Remote Control Unit Connections

The standard connection cable can be extended to a length of a 100m.

This can be safely done if lightning in that area is not a problem.

Otherwise add a braided copper wire to the cable, which must be earthed at

both sides.

For longer distances the “Stinger” data radio should be used.

USE STINGER LIHGTNING DIVERTERS BETWEEN THE ENERGIZER GND CONNECTION AND THE

HV1 AND HV2 OUTPUTS.

USE A MAINS LIGHTNING PROTECTOR AT THE MAINS INPUT TO THE UNIT.

THE FOLLOWING FAULTS CAN BE DISPLAYED:

The system is in the HIGH voltage mode and has detected that the live wire has been cut,

resulting in an open circuit indication. Pressing “reset” will silence the built-in buzzer, but the

problem needs to be resolved first before the screen will return to normal.

The system is in the LOW voltage mode and has detected that the live wire has been cut,

resulting in an open circuit indication. Pressing “reset” will silence the built-in buzzer, but the

problem needs to be resolved first before the screen will return to normal.

The systemis in the HIGH voltage mode and has detected that the livewire is touching a ground

wire in zone 2, resulting in a short circuit indication. Pressing “reset” will silence the built-in

buzzer, but the problem needs to be resolved first before the screen will return to normal.

The systemis in the LOW voltage mode and has detected that thelivewire is touching a ground

wire in zone 2, resulting in a short circuit indication. Pressing “reset” will silence the built-in
