-0909-006 100W/100W+ and 100WP/100WP+ Datalogging Water ERT Module Installation Guide 14
Proprietary and Confidential
Install the 100W/100W+ and 100WP/100WP+ ERT module using one of the following methods:
100W/100W+ and 100WP/100WP+ Mounting Options
Rod mount
The ERT module mounts on a 1/2-inch outside diameter rod.
Wall mount
The ERT module mounts to a wall or other vertical surface.
Base mount
The ERT module mounts on a horizontal, flat surface.
Shelf Mount
The ERT module mounts in prefabricated pockets or shelves within the pit lid using a
shelf mount accessory kit.
Through Lid
The ERT module mounts in lids with hole sizes from 1-3/4 inches to 2-inches.
Through-lid installation requires the Pit Lid Mounting Kit (CFG-1300-004).
For water pit boxes, the type of installation method is based on two factors: the lid material and the current lid
configuration. Metal lids may require a through-lid remote mount antenna for optimal ERT module radio
performance. Plastic lids and other composite materials accept any installation methods described above. The
100W/100W+ and 100WP/100WP+ ERT modules are temperature rated from -20º C to +60º C. Do not install
the 100W/100W+ and 100WP/100WP+ ERT module in locations that may exceed the temperature rating.
Caution Observe the following guidelines for mounting the 100W/100W+ and 100WP/100WP+
ERT module:
• ERT module positioning other than upright could negatively affect radio
performance and battery life.
•
Use only Itron-approved splice kits or inline connectors.
