Overview

The PDA2500 series of rugged plastic NEMA 4X enclosures for 1/8 DIN Digital Panel Meters provide a convenient way to mount up to ten Precision Digital meters to walls and other vertical structures. Many of these enclosures also have room for additional devices like a red light / horn and a 24 VDC transmitter power supply. Sub-panels are available to mount additional devices to the base of the enclosure. These enclosures come pre-cut with horizontal or vertical 1/16 DIN, 1/8 DIN and 1/4 DIN cutouts or they can be ordered with no cutouts. The meters are mounted in the door of the enclosure thus allowing for programming and operation of the meter. Mounting hardware is provided. The door is hinged and secured with screws. Enclosures, meters and accessories are ordered and packaged separately.

PDA2500 Series Enclosure with Light / Horn

Light / Horn Accessories

Precision Digital offers a Light / Horn that can be mounted to any PDA2500 series enclosures by the user. This Light / Horn can be wired to flash or stay steady on and the horn is rated at 85 dB. The light and horn can be controlled independently of each other via separate relays on the meter such that the horn can be programmed to silence via a button mounted to the enclosure and the light can be programmed to stay on until the alarm clears.

The light / horn and reset button are all rated NEMA 4X or IP65. The following table illustrates a typical way the Light / Horn option can be wired and programmed for the ProVu meter:

1. Light can be wired to flash or stay steady on

Note: The Light / Horn option is powered from the 200 mA transmitter power supply, so when that option is installed, the meter’s transmitter power is downgraded from 200 mA. See isolated Transmitter Power Supply specification on meter’s data sheet for details.

MOD-LRHB1

When this MOD is ordered, the enclosure comes pre-drilled with holes for Light / Horn and Reset Button to be installed by user. The Light / Horn hole is in the back left corner of the enclosure and the Reset button is centered on the front of the enclosure about an inch off the bottom of the door. If the user would prefer to mount these items in different locations, order the PDA-LRH and the PDA-BUTTON1R separately and drill holes and mount as desired.
