JVA – Z RANGE OF ENERGIZERS

Posted by admin On February - 26 - 2009

SECURITY ENERGIZERS

We at AFRICA ELECTRIC are proud to say that we only use SABS and International safety grade energizers like the JVA or STAFIX range of energizers.

Z-RANGE
The imported JVA Z-Range of energisers is designed to be the best affordable high-feature security energiser in the world. It was built and designed as a product of over 30 years of electric fence experience earned in the most testing international environments. The unit has a unique LCD voltage display so that the fence output and return voltages can be seen clearly.
The unit can be operated by key-switch or by the optional LCD keypad.
FEATURES INCLUDE
 LCD voltage display
 Powerful 4 joules peak output energy
 Designed to pass IEC60335.2.76 and EMC standards (reports available on request)
 Wall mountable, robust enclosure with detachable PCB chassis for ease of installation and repair
 Earth monitor input
 Gate input
 Key-switch
 Keypad programmable
 Lower-power mode
 Entry/Exit delay from gate input trigger
 Switched +12V outputs for Siren and Strobe up to 30 Watts for 3 minutes
 Microprocessor controlled
 Outputs may be wired for All-Live wire fences (All-Live model only)

WHAT IS BI-POLAR FENCING?
The new JVA Z14A Electric Fence Security Energisers can be operated in bi-polar mode. This gives rise to the questions: What is bi-polar and what exactly are the benefits of this wiring configuration?
A bi-polar fence is an all-live wire fence. A bi-polar energiser has the ability to pulse synchronized positive and negative pulses down alternative wires of the same fence line. So, instead of having alternative live and earth wires on the fence line, one now has one wire with a positive pulse and one wire with a negative pulse. This means that all the wires on the security fence are live (with the exception of one true earth wire in the fence grid).
A reading taken between the positive pulsing or negative pulsing live wires and the true earth, will give half the voltage of a normal live earth configuration. However, when one touches both the positive and negative pulsing wires, one will receive the ‘full Monty’. The big plus factor of this configuration is that, by reducing the voltages to each wire, one eliminates the annoying and often difficult-to-eliminate arcing experienced in coastal or dusty areas.

Here are a few of the specs of the motor.

The D10 operator:

· 24V Dc operator

· 2x 7A/h batteries

· Switching mode power supply

· LCD programmable controller card

(so easy to commission it is almost unreal)

· Will be able to handle gates up to 1000kg

· 800 operation a day

· 25m/ min true speed

The B1000 intercom system

Posted by admin On February - 16 - 2009

b10001-300x2121

The main features of this system are as follows:
· Not limited to the amount of users
· Three telephone numbers per user (Telkom, cell number etc.)
· 220V to the system and it does have battery backup
· Three outputs that can be activated
· Arm and disarm a loop detector to open the gate for visitors exiting the complex remotely, this is a advance safety feature because the loop will be disarmed until you phone the unit. By doing this it will be not possible to trigger the gate via the loop if a vehicle drives over the loop if it did not receive a trigger signal from a call that was made to the unit.
· Fully programmable via the internet with a secure user name and password
· Full transaction, airtime usage and complex audit reporting sheets available via the net for easy administration use.
· Latest software and firmware will be automatically be updated when it is available.

Please feel free to contact me if you would require any additional information on this product.

Centor Traffic Barrier

The CENTOR traffic barrier is the right product for high volume access control applications such as shopping mall parking lots, large business estates etc.

It incorporates a 220V torque motor. The unique operating characteristic of this motor is that it provides the system with a continuous rating (100% duty). It is very efficient with a barrier raise time of less than 3 seconds (3 & 4.5m boom pole models).

It offers fail safe operation in that the barrier will automatically raise in the event of a mains power failure.
The CENTOR barrier enclosures are robustly constructed from either mild or stainless steel (Typically grade 3CR12 or 430) to provide a tough and long lasting product.

The reliability of the system is further enhanced, by the simplicity of the design and the minimal quantity of mechanical components used.

It uses the CENTURION CP91 controller which offers proven reliability and the  flexibility that it can be programmed to suit majority of applications.

Installing a full electric fence against a vibracrete will is essential on industrial sites as the criminals today would breakthrough the slabs if there is no electrification on the lower part of the wall.
