Document Purpose
This document provides the installation instructions for the 100W and 100WP ERT module. Mounting
options for the 100W and 100WP ERT module include rod mount, wall mount, through-lid, and shelf-mount
installation. The ERT module is available with the following configurations:
• Integral connector
• 5-foot open-end cable
• 20-inch open-end cable
An optional Itron Leak Sensor is available for all three configurations to provide leak monitoring capability.
100W and 100WP ERT module configurations provide an easy interface to several register types. The 20-inch
cable variant allows meter manufacturers to mount the ERT module directly to their respective meter registers
before delivery to the installer.
Caution Installing an integrated 100W or 100WP ERT module and meter register in a water pit box reduces
the ERT module's RF signal distance significantly. If read reliability is a problem, install the remote antenna or
select a new installation method.
