Overview
The PDA2800 series of economical small footprint plastic NEMA 4X enclosures provide a convenient way to mount one or two Precision Digital meters to walls and other vertical structures. The PDA2811 enclosure also has room for a light / horn accessory. These enclosures come pre-cut with horizontal 1/8 DIN cutouts or they can be ordered with no cutouts. The PDA2801 and PDA2811 are provided with a ½" conduit hole in the base of the enclosure. The meters are mounted in the cover of the enclosure thus allowing for programming and operation of the meter. 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 and accessories are ordered and packaged separately.
Wall Mounting
The PDA2801 uses four screws (not included) that go through the back of the enclosure for quick and easy wall mounting. The PDA2811, PDA2812, 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.

PDA2800 Series Enclosure with Light / Horn
PDA2811 Enclosure Shown with a ProVu Meter and MOD-LH Light / Horn and Reset Button. Meter & MOD-LH Sold Separately. Assembly Required.
Light / Horn Accessories
Precision Digital offers a Light / Horn that can be mounted to the PDA2811, PDA2812 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 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:
| Relay # | Connected to | Typical reset method (user selectable) |
| 1 | Flashing Light(1) | Reset automatically after alarm clears |
| 2 | Horn | Silence with Reset 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
Note: The Light / Horn accessory is powered from the 200 mA transmitter power supply, so when this is installed, the meter’s transmitter power is downgraded from 200 mA. See Transmitter Power Supply specification on MOD-LH manual for details.
MOD-LH Light / Horn Accessory
When this MOD is ordered, the enclosure comes pre-drilled with holes for the Light / Horn and Reset Button to be installed by user. Meter and enclosure are sold separately. 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 cover. If the user would prefer to mount these items in different locations, order the PDA-LH and the PDA-BUTTON1R separately and drill holes and mount as desired. Other light colors are available.
Light / Horn Dimensions Units: Inches (mm)
