UNIQUE DESIGN ATTRIBUTES
  1. Non-linear distribution of the electric field
  2. Intensity of the electric field:
    a. Positive electrodes-close to zero
    b. Negative electrodes-maximum
  3. Adjustable DC pulse parameters:
    a. Amplitude
    b. Pulse duration
    c. Intervals between the pulses
    d. Number of pulses in a packet
 
 
KEY BENEFITS
  1. "Dynamic" electric field designed to divert, not stun fish
  2. Random alternating electric field prevents acclimation
  3. Vertical control of electric field with virtually no depth limitation
  4. Electric field does not disperse into the ground
  5. Size flexibility and easy installation
  6. Durable and resistant to icing and debris
  7. Low energy consumption (solar panels may be practical)
  8. Low operating and maintenance costs
  9. Remote control
  10. Limited effect on navigation
