2. Insert the lead wires from the 2.4GZ OpenWay remote mount gas module into new 3M gel connectors

(Itron part number CON-0023-001) together with the same colored lead wire from the meter cable (see the

wiring table below) and crimp using a 3M hand-held crimping tool.

Important Use a crimping tool compatible with gel-connectors. Do not use a standard pliers for crimping

gel-connects. The crimping tool provides an even pressured crimp to make a secure connection. Apply

pressure for three seconds until the gel cap is fully crimped (collapsed) to allow time for the low viscosity

silicone-based gel to flow. If the silicone gel flows out of the crimped connector, avoid touching the gel.

Gel flowing from the connector provides environmental protection for the connection.

Note Do not strip lead wire prior to inserting the wire in the gel connector.
