INTRODUCTION
The PROVU®PD7000 meter boasts specifications and functionality that clearly
makes it one of the most advanced temperature meters available. Its dual-line 6-
character display, function keys, and optional expansion modules are only a few of
the features you will find on the PROVU.
A fully loaded PD7000 meter has the following: four SPDT relays, 4-20 mA output,
and one 24 VDC power supply to power the 4-20 mA output. The PD7000
capabilities may be enhanced by adding the following external expansion modules:
four SPST relays (creating an eight-relay temperature meter), two digital I/O modules
with four inputs and four outputs each, and USB, RS-232 or RS-485 communication
adapters. A digital input is standard.
The eight relays can be used for alarm indication or temperature control applications.
The 4-20 mA isolated output, Modbus RTU serial communications, and digital I/O
options make the PD7000 an excellent addition to any system.

SAFETY INFORMATION
!
CAUTION: Read complete
instructions prior to
installation and operation
of the meter.
WARNING: Risk of
electric shock or

WARNING!
Hazardous voltages exist within enclosure. Installation
and service should be performed only by trained
service personnel.

INSTALLATION
There is no need to remove the meter from its case to
complete the installation, wiring, and setup. Instructions
are provided for setting up a 12/24 VDC powered meter
to operate from 12 VDC power, see page 18.
Unpacking
Remove the meter from box. Inspect the packaging and
contents for damage. Report damages, if any, to the carrier.
If any part is missing or the meter malfunctions, please contact
your supplier or the factory for assistance.
Panel Mounting Instructions
•Prepare a standard 1/8 DIN panel cutout – 3.622" x 1.772" (92 mm x 45 mm).
Refer to Figure 1 below, for more details.
•Clearance: allow at least 6.0" (152 mm) behind the panel for wiring.
•Panel thickness: 0.04" - 0.25" (1.0 mm - 6.4 mm).
Recommended minimum panel thickness to maintain Type 4X
rating: 0.06" (1.5 mm) steel panel, 0.16" (4.1 mm) plastic panel.
•Remove the two mounting brackets provided with the meter (back-off the two
screws so that there is ¼" (6.4 mm) or less through the bracket. Slide the
bracket toward the front of the case and remove).
•Insert meter into the panel cutout.
•Install mounting brackets and tighten the screws against the panel. To
achieve a proper seal, tighten the mounting bracket screws evenly until meter
is snug to the panel along its short side. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN, as the
rear of the panel may be damaged.
