How do I get the best from mySmartPower energizer?Poor electric fencing can be traced toproblems such as inadequate earthing,undersized leadout or poor fenceconstruction.Overcoming these problems is simple ifyou use quality power fence components.Earth/Ground — Poor earthing is themost common reason for weak electric fenceperformance. The SmartPower energizer’selectronic display, continually indicateswhether your earth/ground system isadequate.An all ‘live’ wire system requires a minimumof six 2-meter long earth stakes (G87900).Soils with low mineral content require theGallagher Super Earth kit (G88000).Leadout — Adequate leadout is vital fortransmitting power to the fence system. TheSmartPower energizer requires a high qualityleadout such as XL High Conductive Wire(G92900).Fence Construction — Good fenceconstruction is vital for a high performancepower fencing system.Products critical to quality fence constructionare:• Joint clamps (G60355) to ensure tightwire connections.• Powerlock insulators (G69004) toeasily manage strained wire.• Super conductive wire (G92900)to be used as leadout wire.AEnergizerBEarth stakeAC D E F GCDStrain insulatorPost insulatorEWire tightenerBRefer to Power Fencemanual for otherfence optionsFGWarning signJoint clampHow simple is itto use?From original concept, theSmartPower energizer hasbeen designed to makemanaging a Power FenceSystem simple and easy.Equipped with a “HelpGuide” Wall Chart, an easyto-readOperator Manual,back lit electronic displays– which provide informationfrom the moment youswitch the energizer ON –the energizer could not besimpler to operate.Battery Only or Battery BackupOperationsA 12 volt deep cycle lead acidrechargeable battery (G51800) isrecommended when the MBX energizeris used in battery only or battery backupmode.MBX Alarm Controller – Protect yourproperty and monitor your fence withthe MBX Alarm Controller.The system includes:• MBX Alarm Controller (G56900)• MBX Siren (G56902)• MBX Strobe Light (G56901)LegendA Energizer D Strobe LampB Alarm Controller E Earth StakesC SirenF Reference EarthFor further detailed information on fence design refer to the Gallagher Power Fencemanual or contact your nearest Gallagher representative.

SmartPowerThe Ultimate in Power FencingMore than just power

pioneered Power Fencing in 1938 and revolutionisedpasture management practises. Today, leading farmers recognise that moreefficient pasture management techniques are now vital for sustained profit.Gallagher SmartPower provides the answer – a Power Fence System that not only improves animalcontrol but is significantly more convenient and efficient to manage.Combining innovation with leading edge technology, SmartPower is a commitment to improvedpasture management and more profitable farming.“SmartPower is the most significantadvance in Power Fencing in over30 years”What is a SmartPower energizer?Today’s farmer expects more from an energizerthan just a pulse on the fence. Utilising the latestmicro-chip technology SmartPower provides:Time Saving Convenience – A sophisticatedRemote Control allows you to make instant fencechanges by simply turning the energizer OFFand ON anywhere the fence is powered.Power When You Need It – With modelsranging from 15 to 48 Joules stored energySmartPower energizers can deliver real powerwhen required.Maximum output voltage is maintained rightthrough to extreme fence loads.Improved Fence Management – Electronicdisplays provide information on Stored Energy,Output Voltage, Fence Voltage and Earth/GroundVoltage. This helps you constantly monitor thefence system and achieve optimum fenceperformance.Secure Animal Control – Alarms onEarth/Ground, Output and Fence Voltage alertyou if animal control is at risk.A More Reliable Power Fence System –Patented technology, called Adaptive Control,increases power as fence load increases.
