JVA AgriRange Energizers
6. COMMON ENERGIZER PROBLEMS
The most common problems with electric fence energizers are:
•
Flat batteries
•
Lightning
•
Moisture and ants
•
blown fuses
The intelligent JVA Series of energizers will self-diagnose and report their status. (See
Errors and
Error Codes
) on the Led and LCd displays.
6.1 Flat Batteries
The JVA series energizers, to run effectively, require a battery that is in good condition. The
energizer will protect the battery by slowing down and eventually stopping altogether as the battery
charge is depleted. For best results, check on the energizer at regular intervals. if not receiving the
expected life from a battery consider having it checked by an electrician.
6.2 Lightning
The JVA range of energizers is covered with a two-year warranty that excludes lightning. Surge
protection components inside the energizer are fitted to reduce the risk of damage by lightning.
However, nature is capable of performing more extremely than can be tested for in the laboratory;
to ensure the wellbeing of your JVA investment for the long term, it is recommended that a Lightning
Protection Kit is installed to prevent lightning damage and possible costly repairs.
6.3 Moisture and Ants
Moisture and ants should not be a significant problem for the JVA range of energizers as they are
protected in a weatherproof case. However, where possible, keep the energizer protected from
the weather.
6.4 Blown Fuses
The fuse used is a self-resetting type. disconnect the power for a minute and then reapply the
power. if the unit still does not power up, return it to a service centre.
