Installing the 100W-R and 100WP-R Endpoints To mount the 100W-R and 100WP-R endpoints on the adapter plate 1. Locate the two 1-inch endpoint mounting screws in the Pipe Mount Kit. 2. Slide the endpoint back cover onto the adapter, pushing up to secure the lug adapter in the lug slot. 3. Install the two 1-inch endpoint mounting screws. 4. Tighten the screws to 9 to 12 inch-pounds of torque. To install tamper seals and cable ties 1.
Installing the 100W-R and 100WP-R Endpoints The final installation will resemble the image below after the tamper seals are installed. Note A tamper seal is fully seated when the top of the tamper seal is approximately 1/16-inch below the top of the screw recess. 3. Secure the cable to the meter pipe with a cable tie. 4. Push excess wire up between the back of the endpoint and the face of the adapter plate.
Installing the 100W-R and 100WP-R Endpoints Optional Leak Sensor Installation Leak Sensors (LS) analyze water flow sound patterns to detect new, evolving, and pre-existing leaks. LS analysis data is uploaded to mlogonline™ Network Leak Monitoring for data analysis and accessed through a secure Internet portal unique to your utility. This section describes installation of the Leak Sensor (LS) in a 100W-R system. The 100W endpoint stores 20 days of Leak Sensor data.
Installing the 100W-R and 100WP-R Endpoints Pipe Preparation Clean any dust or dirt from the pipe to facilitate direct contact with the LS surface. Required Equipment Equipment Itron Part Number Description Leak Detection Sensor LDS-0001-001 LDS with bracket; 5-foot cable, and mounting bolt (fits up to 1-1/2inch OD pipe). Optional mounting bracket CFG-0349-002 Mounting bolt fits up to 2-1/2-inch OD pipe. 100W-R Encoder Remote ERW-1300-114 100W-R with Leak Sensor, 10" flying lead.
Installing the 100W-R and 100WP-R Endpoints 3. Insert the mounting U-bolt over the pipe and into the LS mounting holes. Caution Do not mount the Leak Sensor on a pipe coupler, joint, or nut. 4. Insert the mounting plate over the U-bolt's threaded screw ends. Attach the two wing nuts over the clamp screw ends and tighten the wing nuts until snug (to a minimum of 5-inch pounds) to prevent device rotation on the pipe. After the second wing nut is tightened, check the Leak Sensor to verify the device is snug.
Installing the 100W-R and 100WP-R Endpoints To install the Leak Sensor on a pipe (up to 2 1/2-inch OD) 1. Select a Leak Sensor mounting location within 5-feet of the 100W endpoint. Note Leak Sensor mounting orientation is not critical. Orient the Sensor to best accommodate your installation. The most important installation practice is to fasten the Sensor securely to the pipe. Caution The Leak Sensor must be mounted on the water input side of the meter.
Installing the 100W-R and 100WP-R Endpoints 5. Insert the U-bolt around the pipe and into the holes in the plate/Leak Sensor assembly. Secure the U-bolt with the wing nuts. Tighten the wing nuts until snug (to a minimum of 5-inch pounds) to prevent device rotation on the pipe. After the second wing nut is tightened, check the Leak Sensor to verify the device is snug. If the sensor moves, tighten the wing nuts until there is no movement.
Installing the 100W-R and 100WP-R Endpoints Required Tools and Hardware Remote mount installation requires the following tools and hardware: Remote Mount Kit (CFG-0771-021 or CFG-1300-003) includes the back plate, tamper seals, and mounting screws) Nut driver or similar tool Phillips screwdriver Drill and bits for mounting surface and screw size To install on a flat surface 1. Select an installation location. 2. Using a back plate template, drill three pilot holes into the wall or other surface.
Installing the 100W-R and 100WP-R Endpoints 6. Insert a tamper seal over each mounting screw and drive into place with a nut driver or a similar tool. Note A tamper seal is fully seated when the top of the tamper seal is approximately 1/16 inch below the top of the screw recess. 7. Secure any excess cable using the provided cable ties. Direct-Mounting to the Meter Register Direct mounting endpoints to a meter register requires a register designed for that purpose.
Installing the 100W-R and 100WP-R Endpoints To install the 100W-R and 100WP-R endpoints to a Badger Direct-Mount register Caution Verify you have a Badger meter with a register designed for direct mount endpoints. Check the part number on the label to verify the module matches the meter. Always install the module with the arrow on the housing pointing upward. Note The register may or may not be mounted on the meter when performing the following steps. 1.
Installing the 100W-R and 100WP-R Endpoints 2. Connect the endpoint wires to the register using gel-cap connectors (see Using Gel-cap Connectors on page 33) following the 100W-R encoder to the Badger ADE register wire connections, (see Connecting 100W-R to a Remote Meter Register on page 7). After connecting the wires, carefully tuck the connectors into the endpoint housing. 3.
Installing the 100W-R and 100WP-R Endpoints 5. Place the endpoint on the register, ensuring the edge of the endpoint housing is seated properly around the perimeter of the register as shown below. Note A gasket is not required. 6. Install four Torx-head mounting screws (SCR-0010-005) as shown below and hand-tighten the screws. Warning User Itron mounting screws (SCR-0010-005). Using the wrong mounting screws could crack the plastic endpoint housing.
Installing the 100W-R and 100WP-R Endpoints 7. If you have not already done so, connect the register to the water meter and fully tighten the mounting screw (1) as directed by Badger Meter. Note Mount the register on the meter in one of four different positions with respect to the direction of water flow (refer to the manufacturer's installation directions). 8. If the standard Torx screw is used (1), a wire seal is not necessary.
Installing the 100W-R and 100WP-R Endpoints To install the Elster/AMCO (ABB) Scancoder, InVISION, or Digital Direct-Mount Caution Verify you have an Elster/AMCO meter with a register designed for direct mount endpoints. Always install the endpoint right side up with the arrow on the housing pointed upward. Note The register may or may not be mounted on the meter when performing the following steps. 1.
Installing the 100W-R and 100WP-R Endpoints 2. Installation requires a 100W-R endpoint for an InVISION or Scancoder register. Installation for a Digital register requires a 100WP-R. 3. Strip 1/2-inch of insulation from the end of the brown, gray, and yellow wires. 4. Place the endpoint on the mounting bracket and route the yellow, gray, and brown wires through the opening. Note A gasket is not required.
Installing the 100W-R and 100WP-R Endpoints 5. Install four Torx-head mounting screws (Itron Part Number SCR-0010-005) as shown below. Hand tighten each screw. 6. Connect the endpoint wires to the register screw terminals following the 100WP-R pulser to the Elster/AMCO meter register wire connections, (see Connecting 100WP-R to a Remote Meter Register on page 8). After connecting the wires, carefully tuck the connectors into the endpoint housing. Tighten all screws securely.
APPENDIX A Using Gel-cap Connectors This section describes connecting the 100W-R and 100WP-R endpoints to the water meter register using gel cap connectors. Required Materials E-9R 3M® gel cap crimping tool Gel cap connectors 1. Push two wires as far as possible into the connector. Caution Do not strip insulation from the ends of the wires before inserting them into the connector. 2. Carefully place the connector and wires into the jaws of the crimping tool.
Using Gel-cap Connectors 3. Crimp the connector by squeezing the handles until the connector cap is fully seated. Continue to apply pressure for three seconds. 4. A connector is crimped properly when the top of the movable yellow center (1) is flush with the top of the connector body (2). Warning Crimping the connector forces some sealant out of connector. The sealant protects the inside of the connector against insects, moisture, and other contaminants.
