Extra Info
Ceiling Mount Simplicity
The DH-PFA106 is purpose-built to provide a clean, stable ceiling-mount solution for surveillance cameras. It is especially effective in locations where wall mounting isn’t possible or desirable—such as:
-
Retail shops, where ceiling placement offers a broad field of view without interfering with displays
-
Hallways and corridors, where central placement improves coverage symmetry
-
Residential spaces, offering a discreet installation option for living areas, entrances, or garages
Its low-profile circular design allows it to sit flush against most ceiling types, including plasterboard, drop ceilings, and exposed concrete, offering a neat, professional look. The neutral white finish blends effortlessly with modern interiors and standard ceiling materials, reducing visual distraction and maintaining design continuity.
Durable in Demanding Environments
Built for durability, the DH-PFA106 is engineered to operate in extreme environmental conditions. It carries an extended operating temperature range of -40°C to +60°C, and performs reliably in up to 90% relative humidity. This makes it suitable for:
- Unheated garages and workshops
-
Industrial environments like warehouses and mechanical rooms
-
Partially exposed locations such as loading docks, carports, or covered patios
The mount's robust construction resists warping, cracking, or degradation over time, even when exposed to high heat or sudden cold snaps—ensuring the camera remains securely in place under all conditions.
Quick Fit & Included Hardware
Installation is designed to be fast and frustration-free. The DH-PFA106 ships with all essential hardware and tools, including:
- M4 mounting screws
-
Hex wrench for secure attachment
-
Printed mounting guide for accurate alignment and drilling
The base plate features multiple pre-drilled hole patterns, offering broad compatibility with Dahua’s small to mid-size camera models, including dome and turret styles. This universal layout reduces guesswork and ensures a proper fit for most installations.
Minor alignment and tightening adjustments can be performed easily using the included tools, making it a true plug-and-play solution for professionals and installers.
