Align the gasket (1), encoder cable (2), and cable tie (for strain-relief) (3) on the meter as shown. Caution: Route the encoder cable inside the index cover to provide strain relief (minimize pulling or twisting on the encoder).
Cellular 500G Module Remote Installation Guide 6 Diaphragm Meter Installation Programming and Requirements Notes for Diaphragm Meter Installations For remote module programming, see Programming on page 21. Residential Module Programming Notes The module is programmed based on the meter's drive rate. Take note of the index drive rate shown on a lower dial on the index. Elster American meter index drive rates are either 1-cubic foot, 2-cubic feet or 0.05 cubic meters (not shown below).
7 Using Gel-cap Connectors to Complete Wiring Connections This section provides the instructions to complete remote module to meter wiring connections. Gel-cap connections require: ■ E-9R 3M gel-cap crimping tool ■ 3M gel-cap connectors (Itron part number CON-0023-001) 1. Push the two wires into the connector as far as possible. Caution: Do not strip insulation from the ends of the wires before inserting them into the connector. 2.

The connector is properly crimped when the top of the moveable yellow center (1) is flush with the top of the connector body (2). Warning! Crimping the connector forces sealant out of the connector. The sealant protects the inside of the connector against insects, moisture, or other contaminants. The sealant may cause minor eye and skin irritation. Avoid eye contact.
8 Optional Sealant Application Instructions In areas where insect intrusion is a problem, Itron recommends an optional sealant to help keep insects out of the module housing. The Itron-tested and approved sealant (Itron part number ADH-5106-000) is used to seal gaps in remote module installations that can allow insect intrusion. 1. Prepare the module for the sealant by verifying the application area is clean and dry. Warning! Apply sealant in a wellventilated area. 2.
