Verify both the 100G ERT Module and meter drive dogs are lined correctly to eliminate binding. 5. INLET lettering must be on the inlet side of the meter. 6. Place the adapter plate on top of the 100G ERT Module. The two small screw holes in the adaptor plate must face the back of the meter. 7. Place the extension driver onto the 100G ERT Module wriggler.
Installing 100G ERT Module on Actaris 8. Gently place the index assembly onto the adapter plate and install the two index mounting screws. 9. Place the index cover over the index assembly. The transparent section of the cover must be on the same side as the index dials so the meter dials can be easily read. 10. Align the four holes in the index cover with the holes located in each corner of the adapter plate and install the long cover screws. 11.

Installing 100G ERT Module on ROOTS Rotary The information in this section guides you through the installation of the 100G ERT Module Commercial on ROOTS rotary meters. Installation requires the following items: One index mounting plate Gasket and drive cover kit 100G ERT Module A flat screwdriver To attach the Commercial 100G ERT Module to the meter 1.
Installing 100G ERT Module on ROOTS Rotary 2. Locate the INSTRUMENT FACE stamp and position the meter with the drive dog aligned (as shown). IMPORTANT Handle the 100G ERT Module carefully so the metal passive radiator antenna is not damaged. 3. Locate the INLET label and position the ERT module as shown. Verify the two shafts are aligned. 4. Verify the shafts are engaged by turning the ERT shaft. You should feel resistance. 5. Place the index mounting plate on the module and install the four bolts.
Chapter 6 American/Actaris Commercial Meter Installation 6. Install the four ERT module mounting screws and tighten them, in a diagonal sequence. Turn each screw 1/4 to 1/2 turn after it contacts the mounting plate. If you are using a torque wrench, tighten to 72 inch-pounds. NOTE To mount an index and index cover on the rotary meter, remove the domed cover and reference "To attach the index and cover" in the previous section.
CHAPTER 7 Sensus Commercial Meter Installation This chapter shows you how to install a 100G ERT Module on a Sensus Commercial meter. Before installing the 100G ERT Module, verify you have: A compatible meter shown in the Meter Compatibility List. A compatible index. Itron 100G ERT Module can be used with standard dial and direct read (odometer) indexes. The list of materials defined under Installation Prerequisites in this chapter.
Chapter 7 Sensus Commercial Meter Installation Materials Supplied by Itron The following items are supplied by Itron: 100G ERT Module New tamper seals Four screws for securing the 100G ERT Module assembly to the meter. These screws may have holes drilled into the heads to accept wire tamper seals. Two internal-tooth star washers for the mounting screws when using metal index plates. Two cork washers and two flat washers for the mounting screws when using plastic index covers.
Installing the 100G ERT Module Installing the 100G ERT Module There are three major steps to installing the 100G ERT Module on a meter: Remove the index Program the 100G ERT Module Attach the 100G ERT Module to the meter. NOTE Properly dispose of all unused screws, old index covers, gaskets, tamper seals, and other left over materials. Do not leave any materials on customer premises. To remove the index 1. Note the orientation of the index. Remove the tamper seals or wire seals from the index cover.
Chapter 7 Sensus Commercial Meter Installation 3. Remove the index mounting screws and discard them. Program the ERT The ERT must be programmed using the FC200SR with EndPoint-Link software. See the Endpoint-Link ERT Programming Guide (TDC-0411) for more information. IMPORTANT You must perform the following programming procedure for the ERT module to function properly. To program the ERT module 1. Using the FC200SR, program the reading of the index that was on the meter into the ERT module assembly.
Installing the 100G ERT Module 3. Read the ERT module assembly using the FC200SR. Consult the EndPoint-Link ERT Programming Guide (TDC-0411) or other applicable instructions for details on how to read an ERT. If this reading is higher than the one you programmed in step 1 above, the ERT module assembly is counting correctly. If the ERT module assembly reading is not higher than what was programmed in step 1, replace the ERT module with a new one. To attach the 100G ERT Module to the meter 1.
Chapter 7 Sensus Commercial Meter Installation 5. Place the index on top of the 100G ERT Module and line up the mounting holes. Install the ERT module mounting screws (Itron part number SCR-0062-003). 6. Turn each screw 1/4 to 1/2 turn after it contacts the mounting plate. If you are using a torque wrench, tighten to 72 inch-pounds. 7.
Installing the 100G ERT Module For metal index covers: use screws with the heads drilled to accept wire seals and star washers (Itron part number WSH-0003-006). 8. Place new tamper seals For plastic covers over screws: Press the seals into place with an 11/32 inch nut driver or other blunt tool. For metal covers: pass wires through the holes in the screw heads and crimp the seal. To attach the index and cover 1. Locate the gasket previously removed and place it on the index cover mounting plate. 2.
