Dual Action Tension Sensor DATS3
The patented Nemtek Dual Action Tension Sensor (DATS3) provides an advanced security solution for electric fencing installations by detecting changes in fence wire tension. Designed to enhance perimeter protection, the sensor uses the electric fence monitoring circuit to trigger an alarm condition on the energizer when a significant change in wire tension is detected. Its innovative dual-action design improves the likelihood of detecting intrusion attempts while reducing the risk of undetected tampering, providing an additional layer of security and reliability. Available in two models to accommodate different fence wire types, the DATS3/XL is suitable for galvanised and aluminium wires, while the DATS3/SS is designed for stainless steel wires. With a detection range of up to 50 metres along a straight fence line, the Nemtek DATS3 offers an effective and dependable solution for enhanced perimeter security in residential, commercial and industrial electric fencing applications.
Features:
- Is paired up with the Hybrid Compression Spring CNT3HB or CNT4HB. This is so that the tension in the fence wires can be adequately maintained
- Detects a change in tension on a fence line
- Detects an open circuit at its first-stage trigger
- Detects a dead short at its second-stage trigger
- Constructed from robust material to suit all wire types up to 2.5mm
- Easy to install and retrofit onto most existing Nemtek electric fences
