Gallagher's Energizer Design

The real measure of Energizer performance is a complex combination of voltage, current, energy and pulse shape.

bulletVoltage - An indication of electrical pressure.
bulletCurrent (amps) - An indication of electrical flow.
bulletEnergy (joules) - An indication of energy, ie: watts multiplied by time.
bulletStored Energy Number System - Energy gives the best indication on the ability of the Energizer to handle fence load and maintain an effective shock. This unit Joule is not a perfect comparison as it doesn't take into account pulse shape. However, within the Gallagher range the Joule measure is the best way to compare the performance of the Energizers. Stored energy is used to denote the Energizer model (thus an M4000 has approximately 40 Joules) for two main reasons. It is independent of external fence load conditions and it does not vary as much as output energy which changes according to standard specifications.
bulletPulse Shape - Gallagher has developed a pulse which travels more effectively down the fence line. The shape and length of the pulse ensure the best animal control.

The Gallagher range of Energizers continue the proud tradition of the world's best engineered products.

  1. Indicator lights on all Energizers tell you at a glance if the Energizer is operating.
  2. All Energizers are fitted with a lightning protection device and are fully modular for rapid servicing and replacement.
  3. Modules for some Energizers are interchangeable with the modules for the superseded models.
  4. All Gallagher 220V mains Energizers comply with appropriate international standards, including RFI so safety and quality are assured.
  5. Gallagher's reputation for worldwide service and satisfaction has endured over 50 years.
  6. All Energizers carry a two year warranty

Selecting an Energizer

Mains Powered is always preferred as it usually has a lower purchase price and is virtually maintenance free. Battery Powered is selected when either mains is unavailable or portability is required. Solar Powered reduces the maintenance factor of battery powered and is required on larger Battery Powered Energizers.

Selection of the Energizer type is based on its energy "storage" rating in Joules.  This is determined by a number of factors such the energy source, animal specie (s) and type (s), number of wires and length of fence, the actual fence material, and, the amount of vegetation interfering with the lower wires.  While approximations can be made using various formulas, it is better to send us these details for advice.

Stored Energy: Compares the performance of Energizers within the Gallagher range by comparing the Stored Energy (Joules). Stored Energy gives a consistent measure of Energizer performance since it is independent of fence load. (Indicators like Voltage, Current and Output Energy change according to the fence load conditions). Energy gives the best indication of the ability of the Energizer to handle fence load and maintain an effective shock. The higher the Stored Energy figure, the more powerful the Energizer.

10km/Joule is a rating system based on 1 Joule of Output Energy powering 10km of single wire fencing. (Note: this rating system is not recommended, because distance of fence is not directly proportional to Output Energy).

SmartPower Remote Control: turns SmartPower Energizers ON and OFF from anywhere on the fence.

SmartPower Adaptive Control: intelligently increases power (Stored Energy) as fence load increases to maximize Output Voltage.

Digital Monitors: provide information on Stored Energy, Output, Fence and Earth voltage.

SmartPower Audible Alarms: alert when fence performance is under acceptable levels for good animal control.

SmartPower Security Option: alerts when a fence is breached.

Indicator Lights: indicate whether the Energizers and fence are performing satisfactorily

Full and Reduced Power Terminals you can operate full and reduced power terminals simultaneously on different fences.

Solar Option: Ideal for remote locations, where there is no mains power supply.

(Indicators like Voltage, Current and Output Energy change according to the fence load conditions).

10km/Joule is a rating system based on 1 Joule of Output Energy powering 10km of single wire fencing. (Note: this rating system is not recommended, because distance of fence is not directly proportional to Output Energy).

Full and Reduced Power Terminals: you can operate full and reduced power terminals simultaneously on different fences.

Indicator Lights: indicate whether the Energizer, fence and battery are performing satisfactorily.

Power Options: you can adjust the power options to suit your individual fencing requirements and battery consumption.

Battery-Save Options: Adjustable pulse rate options conserve battery life.

Battery Type: For Energizers that us a rechargeable battery, choose a battery which is designed for regular charge and discharge cycles, and for discharging most of its capacity without damage e.g. deep-cycle, marine and leisure batteries.

Automotive batteries are designed to supply very high power for a short time. If used with battery powered Energizers where there is regular cycling and deep discharge, they will quickly be damaged resulting in a reduces service life.
