Overview
The PDA2800 series of economical small footprint plastic NEMA 4 & 4X enclosures provide a convenient way to mount up to four Precision Digital meters / controllers to walls and other vertical structures. The PDA2811 and PDA2821 enclosures also have room for a light / horn accessory. These enclosures come pre-cut with horizontal or vertical 1/4, 1/8, or 1/16 DIN cutouts or they can be ordered with no cutouts. Models with cutouts for PD420 / PD460 are also available. All enclosures are provided with a ½" conduit hole in the base of the enclosure. The instruments are mounted in the cover of the enclosure thus allowing for programming and operation of the instrument. No additional mounting hardware other than screws is needed. The cover is secured with four screws. Optional pipe mounting kits are available for mounting the enclosures to 2" pipes. Enclosures, meters/controllers and accessories are ordered and packaged separately.
Wall Mounting
The PDA2801 and PDA2802 use four screws (not included) that go through the back of the enclosure for quick and easy wall mounting. The PDA2811, PDA2812, PDA2813, PDA2814, PDA2815 and PDA2821 enclosures include four mounting flanges and four screws. Using the screws and a phillips head screwdriver simply assemble each flange in the four threaded screw holes on the back of the enclosure as shown in the example below.

The button comes with 9 pre-printed message labels the user can affix under the button: RESET, BATCH, ACK, TARE, SILENCE, STOP, START, PAUSE, START/STOP.

Light / Horn Accessories
Precision Digital offers the PDA-LH, a Light / Horn that can be mounted to the PDA2811 or PDA2821 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 button are all rated NEMA 4X or IP65. The following table illustrates a typical way the Light / Horn accessory can be wired and programmed using the four relays on the ProVu meter:
| Relay # | Connected to | Typical reset method (user selectable) |
| 1 | Flashing Light(1) | Auto reset |
| 2 | Horn | Silence with button at any time |
| 3 | User Device | As user desires |
| 4 | User Device | As user desires |
1. Light can be wired to flash or stay steady on
Notes:
- The Light / Horn accessory is powered from the 200 mA transmitter power supply; so when it is installed, there is less power available for the transmitter. See MOD-LH Series manual for details.
MOD-LH Light / Horn Accessories
When the MOD-LH is ordered, the enclosure comes pre-drilled with holes for the Light / Horn and Button to be installed by user. Meter / controller and enclosure are sold separately. The Light / Horn hole is in the back left corner of the enclosure and the button is centered on the cover of the enclosure about an inch off the bottom. For mounting in different locations, order items separately and drill holes and mount as desired. Other light and button colors are available.
