Marderschutz M6500K The FLEXIBLE marten repellent device

Martens inhabiting your engine compartment? Out of the question! To prevent these unwanted car occupants, five stainless steel contact plates are placed at the vulnerable points, delivering a painful (not life-threatening) electric shock to the marten's snout or paw.

The electric fence principle will chase away even stubborn car rodents. A safety switch immediately discharges the high voltage when the hood is opened, so that people are spared such an electric shock.

In addition, a 120-decibel ultrasonic device is installed, which scares away most animals before they get too close to the engine compartment.

Thanks to the automatic circuit, which automatically activates the marten protection after parking, the M6500K can be installed without connecting to terminal 15 (ignition plus), which saves car owners a considerable amount of installation time.

Advantages

• CAN bus: The electronics of modern vehicles communicate internally via the so-called CAN bus. Our devices function perfectly even in this environment.
• Hybrid-compatible: Our devices can also be installed in hybrid vehicles without any problems.
• Soft-start K&K devices start up slowly thanks to an intelligent soft-start circuit, reaching a very low power consumption level. Even the latest, highly sensitive on-board computers do not register our devices as power consumers. Unlike devices with a "hard" start-up system and current pulses of up to 25mA, K&K remains error-free even in the latest engine generations.
• e1 mark: The e1 mark confirms testing by the Federal Motor Transport Authority (KBA).
• High voltage (electric fence principle): "If you don't want to listen, you have to feel!" Older martens (with different hearing behavior) or very aggressive animals (territorial fights) can sometimes only be driven away with electric shocks.
• Acid-resistant and self-extinguishing plastic: The device is resistant to acids (e.g., batteries or cleaning agents), and the plastic used meets automotive industry safety standards.
• Compact plug: The separation of the control unit and wiring harness using a compact plug allows the control unit to be replaced without the time-consuming complete removal. This plug is also waterproof on waterproof devices.
• Battery monitor: In addition to their low power consumption, the high-voltage devices feature an integrated battery monitor that triggers when the vehicle battery voltage falls below 11.5V and shuts down the device to protect it from complete discharge.
• Shortened installation time thanks to automatic switching: The innovative automatic voltage switching automatically starts the device as soon as the engine is switched off. The complex connection to terminal 15 is no longer necessary.
• Safety hood switch: The newly developed hood switch immediately reduces the high voltage on the contact plates when the hood is opened. Active intervention/deactivation is no longer necessary. Greater safety for the vehicle owner/mechanics and no problem for K&K devices, as they automatically reduce current consumption in the event of a short circuit.
• Pulsating sinus ultrasound: Our marten deterrents imitate the animals' warning cries very realistically and extremely loudly. This works and prevents the habituation effect.
