EF DRUID 18LCD-8J

The Druid 18 LCD is a powerful version of the Druid 15 LCD, boasting 7.2 output Joules into 500 Ohm load. This intelligent unit is the ideal choice for large series security fencing systems. It will maintain a high voltage on the fence by using Adapture Power Technology (APT ). APT will modify the pulse to maximise fence power into the fence by actively testing the fence. Fence characteristics are not always stable and change with time, weather and vegetation."

• LCD display
