Series-PME

Supported Applications

The Dwyer Series PME Panel Meter Enclosures are designed to house and protect 1/8 DIN panel meters. These enclosures provide a protective housing solution for measurement instrumentation, accommodating configurations from single units up to multi-meter arrays.

Operating Conditions & Performance

All models in the Series PME carry an enclosure rating of NEMA 4X (IP66). The series supports various physical dimensions and weights depending on the selected material type and meter capacity. A selection note advises users to ensure panel meter dimensions fit the specific enclosure size.

Material Options

• Low-cost plastic: Thermoplastic polyester
• Plastic (Thermoset): Thermoset polyester
• Plastic (Thermoplastic): Thermoplastic
• Stainless steel: 304 SS
• Steel: Steel

Configuration Options

The Series PME model numbering follows the format PME-XX, where the first digit indicates material type and the second digit indicates meter capacity. The series supports configurations for 1 to 6 meters.

Meter Capacity by Model Digit

• Digit 0: Low-cost plastic (Thermoplastic polyester)
• Digit 1: Plastic (Thermoset polyester)
• Digit 2: Plastic (Thermoplastic)
• Digit 3: Stainless steel (304 SS)
• Digit 4: Steel

The second digit defines the number of meters supported:

• 1 = 1 meter
• 2 = 2 meters
• 3 = 3 meters
• 4 = 4 meters
• 5 = 5 meters
• 6 = 6 meters

Key Product Differences

Variations within the Series PME are defined by material composition and meter capacity, which directly influence overall dimensions and weight.

• The PME-0X series utilizes thermoplastic polyester for low-cost applications.
• The PME-1X series uses thermoset polyester; the 4-meter through 6-meter models (PME-14, PME-15, PME-16) share a common dimension of 15.8 in x 11.8 in x 7.0 in.
• The PME-2X series uses thermoplastic; the 4-meter through 6-meter models (PME-24, PME-25, PME-26) share a common dimension of 13.7 in x 12.4 in x 7.1 in.
• The PME-3X series is constructed from 304 SS; the 4-meter through 6-meter models (PME-34, PME-35, PME-36) share a common dimension of 13.5 in x 12.9 in x 6.0 in.
• The PME-4X series is constructed from steel; the dimensions and weights for these models match their stainless steel counterparts (PME-3X) exactly, with PME-44 through PME-46 sharing a dimension of 13.5 in x 12.9 in x 6.0 in.
