Animal away
This latest PIR + ULTRASONIC Animal-Away provides you a convenient, non-location limited, effective and humane way to deter the cats, dogs, rabbits, squirrels out of your gardens, lawn and yard without harming them.
Animal-Away utilizes the sophisticated PIR (Passive Infra Red detecting system) to monitor a fan shaped area of 70 degree arc and distance up to 10m (30 feet) which is approx. 62 sqm (550 square feet) of unobstructed space. Intruding creatures will be detected within the protecting area.
Animal-Away will send ultrasound at frequency of about 23,000 Hz to deter the intruding creatures once the detecting system is triggered. The utilization of infra red detecting system is applied to save battery energy as Animal-Away is operated by a 9V alkaline battery. With the benefits of battery operation, Animal-Away can be easily installed at any place without electricity. You may mount the Animal-Away to the wall outside of your building, on a ledge or attach it to a post to stand the unit on the ground. Although the unit is weather-resistant, it is recommended to remove the main module from the mounting shelter if storms are expected.
The ultrasonic sound emitted from Animal-Away cannot be heard by humans but is uncomfortable to animals, whose only reaction is to quickly move away.
PLEASE NOTE: Do not place in areas with permanent movement! The activation time of the sensor and ultrasound sender will considerably increase, causing the exhausting of the batteries in a very short period of time.
