Speedrite 3000 Energizer

A 110v AC or 12v DC electric fence energizer used to keep out deer, raccoons and rabbits from garden/orchard areas. It is also used to keep in poultry, cattle, sheep, goats, horses, swine and guard dogs. Effective at protecting against coyotes, stray dogs, bear and fox.

Joules

• 4.5 stored joules.
• 3 released joules.
• 2.8 joules in moist soils.
• .45 joules in dry soils.

Miscellaneous

• Comes with a 110v plug-in adaptor with a 6' cord and a 12v battery adaptor.
• Comes with wiring harness to connect energizer to fence and energizer to ground rod.
• Includes an on/off switch.
• Has 4 pulse settings to adapt to various situations.
  • Slow setting- approximately 2.5 seconds between pulses. Use where unknowing visitors may accidently touch the fence or where livestock/predator pressure is low. 25 pulses per minute.
  • Fast-day and slow at night. Use when pressure is higher during the day than at night (diurnal livestock).
  • Fast- night and slow during the day. Use for nocturnal livestock and predators or when visitors are more likely to be around.
  • Fast setting- Pulse rate is approximately 1.5 seconds. Use when animal pressure is great and where no visitors may contact the fence. 40 pulses per minute.
• Draw from a 12v battery is 295 milliampere(mA) per hour when set on the 'fast pulse' setting and 174 mA when set to the 'slow pulse' setting. With this energizer a 12v 100 ampere hour, deep cycle battery will last 8.5* days when set on the fast setting and 14 * days when set on the low setting. * Assumes being drawn down to 40% between charges.
• Use a 20-30 watt solar panel.
• Requires 9' of ground rod in the ground.
• Draws 3.7 watts per hour.
• Indicator lights show output voltage and battery condition.
• Manufactured by Tru Test.

Should Power...

• 3 miles of 3 strand cattle fence
• 1 1/2 miles of a 5-7 strand sheep fence
• 18 of the 164' sheep/goat nets
• 9 of the 164' poultry nets.
All distances are dependent on amount of grass/weed load on the fence.

• Versatile, can be used as a plug-in energizer or as a battery energizer.
• Adapts from one style to the other in a few seconds.
• Easily moved around.
• Quickly mounts to a wall or fence post.
• The decision is yours as to pulse rate and battery consumption based on your needs.

1. Mount the energizer at desired location. If using as a plug-in unit, it must be inside, away from risk of fire.
2. Connect the Fence earth terminal (green) to the ground rod(s).
3. Connect the fence output terminal (red) to the fence.
4. Connect the energizer to the mains/battery with correct adaptor.
5. Turn energizer on to desired pulse setting.
6. Check the voltage on the fence with a fence tester.

When working on the fence, make sure the energizer is turned off before working on the fence or the energizer.

To determine if the fault is with the fence or the energizer...

1. Test the energizer first
2. Turn off energizer.
3. Disconnect ground wire and the fence wire.
4. Turn energizer back on.
5. With fence tester, put the ground probe (or clamp) to the ground terminal on the energizer and the metal loop (or positive clamp) at the top of the tester to the fence/positive terminal. The reading you get tells you how well the energizer is working without any other variables. If there is a very low voltage (under 4000v) or no voltage, then the energizer may have a problem. If the voltage is high (greater than 4000v) then the trouble lies with your fence. Most energizers put out between 5000v and 8000v when there is no load (i.e. no fence hooked up).

1. Check that the 110v outlet is "live" by using a plug-in drill or test light.
2. If the test light works and the energizer does not, call Premier.

1. If it's a 12 volt energizer carry the unit to a nearby vehicle and attach the input cords carefully to the vehicle's battery.
2. If the energizer now works, then your fencer's battery needs to be recharged or replaced.
3. If the energizer does not work, then you should call Premier re. repairs.

1. Walk or drive along the fence looking for any point in which the energized wires touch the soil, a steel post or a steel wire. On HT wire fences, check the wires at braces to see if they are touching a hot wire. On netting, look for a hot wire touching the metal stake at the bottom of the plastic posts. Also look for damaged insulators.
2. If the fence can be separated into several parts (by switches or by disconnecting parts of it), you can locate the problem by beginning at the far end and then progressively turn off or disconnect the sections of fence. When the voltage on the remaining fence rises sharply, you've located the section(s) that's causing the problems.
3. The alternative to (2.) is to begin at the fencer and progressively turn on sections of the fence. When the voltage suddenly drops you can assume that the problem is in the section most recently connected.

Our Unique 2-Year Warranty: If an energizer fails within 2 years from the purchase, Premier will replace the module/unit at our cost (unless the reason for its failure is customer abuse or neglect). Your credit card will be charged for the replacement but you will receive full credit when the failed item is back at Premier. Your only cost is shipping the failed item to us. If the original energizer is over 2 years old, we will repair and/or replace it, but you pay for the repair cost and freight.
