EFM300 Overview
The EFM300 consists of a battery-powered backpack generator unit and a fibreglass wand to which different fishing electrodes are easily fitted.
The backpack assembly consists of IPX5 rated battery and control enclosures mounted on a light-weight, comfortable, aluminium packframe.
The handheld wand comprises a fibreglass pole with a handgrip which incorporates the high voltage on/off switch and visual indication of output current. The wand is light-weight and balanced to minimise operator strain.
The EFM300 has been designed with the user in mind to ensure high battery efficiency and user safety.
Controls include output voltage, frequency, and pulse width. These ensure maximum flexibility over a wide range of water conditions and minimise the possibility of damage to fish.
The EFM300 includes four separate safety circuits to maximise user safety, and meets the requirements of IEC335-2 regulations.
