The growing need of Electric Fences
Throughout the
world, the meaning of a security fencing has ceased to
be a mere physical barrier. Today, the security fence
must not only act as a barrier but also react to an
attempt, repel intrusion and considerably delay the
entry time, all the while being independent of human
surveillance. With security gaining more prominence,
organizations need to keep themselves silently equipped
with the best barriers.
Superior technology at work
The electric
fence system turns out to be one of the most reliable
and easy to maintain. It is a fence made of wires
carrying high voltage electrical impulses and low
voltage which give a non lethal shock to any intruder
who comes in contact with the wires. Moreover the wires
automatically activate an alarm which is transmitted to
the security personnel manning the area.
There are various options in the way an Electric Fence
is installed. The fence can be vertical or at an angle
to provide a wider barrier and to make intrusion by
digging or climbing almost impossible. The fencing is
configured according to the requirement of the site like
total height, zone length etc.
The Electric Fencing system allows greater flexibility
as it can be installed on an existing perimeter fence,
above wall boundaries or as stand-alone fence.
Unmatched
benefits of an Electric Fence
The benefits
of an Electric Fencing system is certainly more than
just keeping unwanted intruders out. Other than giving a
non-lethal electric shock, the fence creates a
psychological barrier that further helps the cause of
fencing. There are more reasons.
Easy
Installation
The Electric
Fencing system is very easy to install and maintain,
saving time and precious resources.
Flexible
The Electric
Fence is extremely flexible, in that, it is easy to
integrate with other alarm inputs and easy to install on
any existing fence.
Alarm
The Electric
Fence also provides the advantage of sounding off an
alarm or trigger a CCTV camera whenever an
intruder comes in contact with the wires, increasing the
security. However, when animals come in contract with
the wire, they are repulsed by the electric shock and
the alarm is not activated.
Reduced
Costs
Firstly, the
costs of security is reduced considerably. Also the need
to erect conventional fence is eliminated as the
electric fence acts as a better
alternative.

Adaptive
The
technology enables the system to ADAPT
automatically to changing environmental conditions
and changing conditions on the site. The adaptive
threshold is not constant, changing according to
field conditions such as changes in moisture
levels, dust etc., in order to maintain the
highest alarm threshold. |
Fixed
Parameters
The
operating parameters are preset, and can only be
changed manually. There is no response to any
changes in the conditions existing on site,
resulting in a high false alarm rate. The system
has to be set at the lowest alarm threshold, or
the settings of lowest sensitivity in order to
prevent continuous false alarms. |
Programmable
The
system can be pre-programmed to meet specific site
conditions. Any changes required are undertaken by
changing the parameters of the microprocessor. |
Fixed
Settings
The system has a
limited number of settings, changes to which
require physical changes to the electronic printed
circuit boards. |
Low
False Alarm Rate
Negligible, due to
the adaptive threshold technology. The units
RESPOND to changing field conditions. |
High
False Alarm Rate
False
alarms occur as a result of the unit being unable
to respond to changing field conditions. |
Less
Periodic Maintenance
The
adaptive threshold capability reduces the amount
of periodic maintenance required on the fence. |
More
Periodic Maintenance
The
fence will react immediately to any nuisance
alarms caused by factors such as vegetation overgrowth, resulting in immediate maintenance
procedure. |
