HotSHOCK AN490 (4.9 Joule)

Hotshock AN490 (4.9 Joule)

The Hotshock AN490 is an electric fence energiser from the professional series by Horizont. It is a very powerful electric fence energiser that operates on both 12V and 230V; this provides a combination of flexibility and reliability in the event of a power failure. Ideal for fences up to a maximum of 20km; specially developed for less sensitive animals such as sheep, wolves, poultry and for wildlife management.

The Hotshock AN490 features 2 different connections for output voltages; you can choose the maximum power for large plots, but it can also be switched to lower voltage (up to 1J) for smaller plots or more sensitive animals.

ECO power

The device is equipped with a fully automatic power-saving circuit: power consumption is adjusted to the condition of the fence. In short, if the fence is properly installed and insulated, power consumption will be minimal.

6-stage LED

Easily check the voltage level with the 6-stage LED lights on the device. With each impulse, the LED lights on the front illuminate; the more LED lights that illuminate, the higher the voltage. This allows you to easily monitor the activity and output voltage of the device.

Battery test

The colour in which this light illuminates indicates the battery capacity at 3 levels:

• Green: 40-100%
• Red/green: 20-40%
• Red: 0-20%

The device features a deep discharge protection for the 12V battery.

Impulse Control

As an additional safeguard, this LED clearly lights up RED when the voltage level on the fence drops below the threshold value and GREEN when it is at the minimum desired level.

Earthing

A good earth connection is essential for an optimally functioning electric fence. An earth stake should preferably carry no voltage. For the Hotshock AN490 we recommend a minimum of 3 earth stakes of 150cm (art. 015017)

Want to easily measure the quality of the earthing? Drive a metal stake into the ground approximately 50-100 metres from the device and place it against the wire, rope or tape to create a short circuit. During this measurement, no voltage should be present on the wire. A maximum of 1 or 2 of the 6 LED lights on the device should be lit. If more lights are on, additional earth stakes should be driven in.
