Installation and Positioning Guidelines for Telenet DIG-112

Pre-Installation Preparation and Site Assessment

The Telenet DIG-112 Ultrasonic Rat Repeller (KT Ref: KTI10003002D112) is engineered for targeted indoor pest deterrence across localized zones up to 100 sq. ft. Typical applications include Automated Teller Machine (ATM) kiosks, electrical control booths, telecom hubs, small server rooms, commercial office cabins, and pantry storage areas. Before mounting the 0.44 kg device, inspect the room layout to map out pest entry pathways and identify an unobstructed line-of-sight path across the coverage zone.

Because the unit relies on high-pressure acoustic emissions ranging from 24 kHz to 50 kHz at sound pressure levels between 90 dB and 110 dB, physical barriers directly in front of the speaker will severely attenuate performance. Ensure the installation location provides direct exposure to open floor and movement corridors.

Mounting Elevation and Emitter Orientation

For maximum acoustic dispersion, mount the Telenet DIG-112 on a secure vertical surface at an elevated position:

• Recommended Height: Mount the unit approximately 8 feet above the finished floor level, wall-hung in the same manner as a conventional wall clock.
• Orientation: Position the front-facing acoustic transducer speaker grille pointing outward toward the primary open space or directly along known rodent pathways.
• Form Factor: The compact heavy-duty black metal casing measures 4 x 4 x 4 inches (10.16 x 10.16 x 10.16 cm), allowing flush wall placement in tight architectural footprints such as ATM dispenser rear service areas.
• Obstacle Clearance: Avoid positioning large acoustic barriers, solid partitions, structural pillars, or thick fabric curtains immediately in front of the emitter grille, as soft materials absorb ultrasound while dense objects cast acoustic shadows.

Electrical Connection and Power Requirements

The Telenet DIG-112 features plug-and-play installation via an integrated AC power cord designed for direct interface with single-phase mains supplies:

• Operating Voltage: Standard 220–240 V AC, 50 Hz single-phase power supply.
• Power Consumption: Nominal 5 W to 10 W energy draw, allowing continuous connection to standard electrical branch circuits without overloading infrastructure.
• 24/7 Continuous Duty: The device must operate continuously 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Ultrasonic repellent mechanisms rely on persistent acoustic pressure; interrupting power allows pests to re-enter and disrupts the deterrence cycle.

Structural Acoustic Propagation Limits

High-frequency ultrasonic waves (24 kHz to 50 kHz) reflect off hard surfaces within an enclosed space but do not penetrate solid masonry walls, brickwork, reinforced concrete, or solid partition doors. For multi-room facilities, independent DIG-112 units must be installed in each separate enclosed room or segregated partition requiring protection.

Commissioning and Behavioral Response Stages

Following power-up, the repeller emits an automatic, continuous variable ultrasonic frequency sweep. Facility managers should note the standard operational progression:

• Initial 1 to 2 Weeks (Dislodgement): A temporary increase in visible rodent activity is normal. High-intensity 90 dB / 110 dB pressure dislodges rodents and pests from deep harborage and nesting cavities.
• 20 to 30 Days (Evacuation): Continued acoustic stress prevents habituation, resulting in complete evacuation from the 100 sq. ft. coverage area.
