Pipe Mount Installation
The Cellular 500W can mount on a pipe vertically, diagonally, or horizontally using a pipe
mount kit and remote mount kit (see Mounting Accessories on page 23).
To mount the pipe bracket on a vertical pipe
Caution: A vertical mounting position is important to maximize RF performance.
Mount the module with the module's label arrow pointing up. The module's arrow
must never point to either side or upside down. The module's tilt tamper functionality
is designed to operate with the module installed vertically.
1. Remove the pipe bracket and band clamp from the pipe mount kit (Itron part number CFG-
0005-003). Pipe brackets may be black or gray. These instructions show a black pipe
bracket.
2. Loosen the band clamp screw until the end of the band releases.
3. Push the end of the clamp's band through the holes in the pipe bracket.
4. Place the band clamp around the pipe. The band loosely wraps around the pipe.
