Gallagher Security has released its new F5 and F6 Fence Controllers, introducing a line of safety-monitored pulse fence technology designed for high-performance perimeter protection.
The new controllers are engineered to meet updated international safety standards, including IEC 60335-2-76. The systems provide intelligent intrusion detection and flexible deployment options for critical infrastructure, mining, and logistics sites.
Dave Solly, senior product manager at Gallagher Security, said the F5 and F6 series take safety to a higher level with features like smart synchronization. This technology enables compliance with newly introduced safe limits for the operation of energized fences.
The F6 series features Safety Extra Low Voltage readiness, which allows the system to detect movement in sensitive areas without using a deterrent shock. It also includes Dual Pulse Peak Measurement to provide enhanced alarm functionality for high-specification fences using a dual-pulse configuration.
The controllers are compatible with Gallagher Command Centre v9.40 and above. According to the company, the units can operate independently or integrate with the Gallagher Controller 7000 series, allowing users to scale from single-zone protection to multi-zone installations.
The smart synchronization technology maintains consistent pulse timing along the fence line and automatically adjusts energy levels if a signal is lost, ensuring the perimeter remains active and compliant under varying conditions.
