Installing the 100W/100W+ and 100WP/100WP+ ERT Module




Through Lid Mount Required Tools and Hardware
This mounting method requires the Pit Lid Mounting Kit. Refer to the 100W Installation Methods Overview
(PUB-1300-004) for guidance on which kit to install for different pit lid material and traffic conditions.
   Pit Lid Mounting Kit (CFG-1300-004)
             Note The Pit Lid Mounting Kit is not intended for applications involving
             vehicular traffic. Use the Remote Antenna Kit in incidental traffic areas (such as
             residential environments).

This section provides the instructions to install the 100W/100W+ and 100WP/100WP+ ERT module in a pit
lid with a hole using the Pit Lid Mounting Kit (CFG-1300-004). Verify you have the following items to
complete the installation.




   A        Retainer clip
   B        Pit lid with a pre-drilled hole (simulated pit lid material shown)
   C        Retainer clip collar
   D        100W/100W+ and 100WP/100WP+ ERT module

Installing the 100W/100W+ and 100WP/100WP+ ERT Module




To install in lids with holes using the Pit Lid Mounting Kit (CFG-0771-011)
1. Insert the retainer clip into the pit lid hole with the convex surface on the top of the pit lid.




2. From the bottom side of the lid, screw on the threaded retainer clip collar until the beveled top rests
   against the pit lid.




    Note Ensure the beveled edge of the clip collar is toward the top of the pit lid.
3. Align and insert the retainer clip tab into the retainer clip receptacle on the ERT module housing.

Installing the 100W/100W+ and 100WP/100WP+ ERT Module




Optional Leak Sensor Installation
This section describes installation of the Leak Sensor (LS) in a 100W/100W+ and 100WP/100WP+ ERT
module system.
The ERT module stores 20 days of LS data. On the 21st day, the ERT module begins to write over stored data
in a first in, first out manner.
The ERT module automatically detects the presence of connected LS devices. The ERT module will
automatically detect the LS within 22.5 minutes and begin reading LS data. To immediately detect the LS and
begin reading data, perform a Check ERT with a handheld computer running FDM software.
The LS is used in conjunction with both indoor (basement) and outdoor (mounting on the exterior of the
house) 100W/100W+ and 100WP/100WP+ ERT module installations. LS devices are mounted on a water
service pipe or meter insetter (meter horn) and connect to the LS connector on the ERT module as described
in To connect the Leak Sensor to the 100W/100W+ and 100WP/100WP+ ERT module on page 28. The
mounting bracket shipped with the LS accommodates an (up to) 1-1/2-inch OD pipe. An optional mounting
bracket is available for pipe sizes (up to 2 1/2-inch OD).

Installing the 100W/100W+ and 100WP/100WP+ ERT Module




        Warning When the 100W/100W+ or 100WP/100WP+ is installed but the LS is not attached,
        you must protect the blue port with the universal environmental cap (MSC-0019-008). If you
        remove the LS from the ERT module, the environmental cap must be replaced to protect the
        connector.


To connect the Leak Sensor to the 100W/100W+ and 100WP/100WP+ ERT module
   Caution Verify you have the correct 100W/100W+ or 100WP/100WP+ ERT module. Leak Sensors must
   mount to Port B (middle blue port) of the ERT module. Connecting the LS to Port A (bottom port) or Port
   C (top port) will cause electrical damage to the LS and ERT module.
1. Remove the environmental cap from the ERT module's blue connector (B).




   C. Red connector: Optional antenna connection
   B. Blue connector: Leak Sensor connection
   A. Black connector: register connection

2. Remove the environmental cap from the Leak Sensor connector. Verify the connectors (the ERT module's
   LS connector and the Leak Sensor connector) are clean and dry.




3. Align the Leak Sensor connector with the ERT module's blue connector and insert.




4. Rotate the connector locking ring until the security holes align.




    Caution Do not force the connector ends together. While you hold the LS connector, engage the ERT
    module's connector by rotating the locking ring until both connectors securely connect. Twist only the
    connector locking ring, not the body of the connector. Twisting the connector body could damage the
    connector's pins.

To attach an Itron Security Seal through the connector security hole
1. Insert the pointed end of the security seal through the inline connector and the ERT module connector
   security holes.




2. Insert the pointed end of the security seal into the capped end and push until the seal locks.




This completes the ERT module and Leak Sensor connections.


Pipe Preparation
Clean any dust or dirt from the pipe to facilitate direct contact with the LS surface.

To install the Leak Sensor on a pipe or meter insetter
1. Select a Leak Sensor mounting location within 5-feet of the ERT module. Mount the sensor on the water
   input side of the meter.
    Caution Mount the Leak Sensor on the water input side of the meter. Failure to follow this mounting
    requirement could result in errors in the leak detection data. Installation requires Itron mounting hardware.
    Repair costs and service charges relating to the use on non-compliant mounting hardware will be charged
    to the customer. Contract Itron Support for more information.

2. Verify the pipe’s mounting surface is free from dirt and debris. Place the curved surface of the LS against
   the pipe.




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 you tighten the second wing nut, check the Leak Sensor to verify the device is
   snug. If the sensor moves, tighten the wing nuts until there is no movement.
     Caution Do not tighten the Leak Sensor to more than 20 inch-pounds. Over-tightening could damage the
     Leak Sensor housing and/or the pipe.
     Note Leak Sensor mounting orientation is not critical. Orient the sensor to best accommodate your
     installation. The most important installation practice is to mount the sensor securely to the pipe.




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 ERT module.
     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 Mount the Leak Sensor on the water input side of the meter. Failure to follow this mounting
     requirement could result in errors in the leak detection data. Installation requires Itron mounting hardware.
     Repair costs and service charges relating to the use on non-compliant mounting hardware will be charged
     to the customer. Contract Itron Support for more information.
2.   Insert the mounting plate screws into the holes on the Leak Sensor's curved surface.

3. Secure the mounting plate to the Leak Sensor.




4. Verify the pipe’s mounting surface is free from dirt and debris. Place the curved surface of the LS against
   the pipe.
    Caution Do not mount the Leak Sensor on a pipe coupler, joint, or nut.
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.




    Caution Do not tighten the Leak Sensor to more than 20 inch-pounds. Over-tightening could damage the
    Leak Sensor housing and/or the pipe.

Installing the Remote Antenna
Metal lids on water pit boxes require a through-lid solution for optimal ERT module radio performance. The
remote antenna is designed to fit in a pit lid hole with a diameter of 3/4-inch and lid thicknesses from 1/4-inch
to 1-3/4-inch.
