2 OWRGD Installation Guide Overview This installation guide provides instructions for physically installing, commissioning, connecting, decommissioning, and physically disconnecting the OWRGD valve. Audience This installation guide is intended for Itron personnel, third-party OpenWay Riva system installers, and end-users of the OWRGD valve.
3 About the OpenWay Riva Gas Disconnect The Itron OpenWay Riva Gas Disconnect ( OWRGD) valve is integrated in the piping that distributes natural gas to provide a safe secure device to stop the gas flow in the piping serving a residential or commercial structure. The OWRGD enables remote monitoring and control of the natural gas supply. An optional and externally connected water sensor detects flood water and initiates an automatic valve closure.
OpenWay Riva Gas Disconnect Installation Guide 3 About the OpenWay Riva Gas Disconnect When the OWRGD is mounted in horizontal piping, mount the device with the top surface (the area with the product label) away from walls and structures. When the OWRGD is mounted on vertical piping, do not mount the device in a vertical downflow position (with the flow arrow point down). The top surface (the area with the product label) may point to the side but not toward nearby walls or structures.
OpenWay Riva Gas Disconnect Installation Guide 3 About the OpenWay Riva Gas Disconnect OWRGD System Security The OWRGD is a component of Itron's OpenWay Riva system. The OpenWay Riva system enhanced security, provided by Itron Security Manager (ISM), applies to the RF communications between the network or handheld and the OWRGD. There are two fundamental security processes used in the Itron Security Manager to ensure system communication confidentiality and validity. ■ Authentication.

4 Installing the OWRGD This section describes OWRGD installation. Installation requires initial calibration and alignment using an Itron handheld device loaded with Field Deployment Manager Endpoint Tools Enhanced. OWRGD Installation, Commissioning, and Decommissioning This section provides the information to physically install, connect, commission, decommission, and disconnect the OWRGD.
OpenWay Riva Gas Disconnect Installation Guide 4 Installing the OWRGD Caution: Shield unconnected flood sensor connectors on field installed OWRGD devices with the protective universal environmental cap. Do not leave flood sensor connectors exposed in field installations. Environmental caps employ multiple seals to protect connector life.
OpenWay Riva Gas Disconnect Installation Guide 4 Installing the OWRGD When the OWRGD is mounted in horizontal piping, mount the device with the top surface (the area with the product label) away from walls and structures. When the OWRGD is mounted on vertical piping, do not mount the device in a vertical down flow position (with the flow arrow point down). The top surface (the area with the product label) may point to the side but not toward nearby walls or structures.
OpenWay Riva Gas Disconnect Installation Guide 4 Installing the OWRGD ■ A clear RF signal reaches the antenna (1). ■ Gas is flowing in the proper direction (the direction indicated by the arrow on the OWRGD). ■ The valve reset shaft is accessible with the valve tool (2). Caution: Do not install the OWRGD with the gas outflow in the down position or in such a way that the antenna is against a wall or other structure.
OpenWay Riva Gas Disconnect Installation Guide 4 Installing the OWRGD Remove the red shipping plugs from the inlet and outlet to vent the OWRGD prior to installation. Keep the piping interior, regulator inlet, and regulator outlet free from dirt, chemical sealant (pipe dope), Teflon tape, or other debris. Materials in piping or regulator inlet or outlet create a loss of pressure control. Apply pipe sealant on the male (exterior) pipe threads.
OpenWay Riva Gas Disconnect Installation Guide 4 Installing the OWRGD 2. Verify the gas flow is in the direction noted by the arrow on the body of the OWRGD valve. 3. Apply pipe sealant on the pipe. Caution: Do not leave loose tape or excess pipe sealant on the pipe connections. 4. Thread the OWRGD onto the inlet pipe (or riser). 5. Tighten the connection with a pipe wrench. 6. Thread the outlet pipe into the OWRGD outlet. 7. Tighten the connection with a pipe wrench. 8.
OpenWay Riva Gas Disconnect Installation Guide 4 Installing the OWRGD 9. Install a tamper plug over the top tamper seal cup (if one is not already present). Warning! Check all connections for gas leakage and repair if necessary. Installing the Flood Sensor Warning! Do not paint the flood sensor. Mounting the Flood Sensor on the Pipe Mounting the flood sensor on a pipe requires a user-supplied band clamp large enough to secure the sensor to the pipe.
OpenWay Riva Gas Disconnect Installation Guide 4 Installing the OWRGD 1. Position the flood sensor on the pipe using the correct pipe cradle for the pipe's orientation. Note: Place the sensor 6 to 12 inches above the ground or floor but below the OWRGD. 2. Place the open band clamp around the pipe and flood sensor. 3. Tighten the band clamp enough to ensure the sensor cannot rotate or slip on the pipe. Mounting the Flood Sensor on a Flat Surface 1.
OpenWay Riva Gas Disconnect Installation Guide 4 Installing the OWRGD screws through the flood sensor's mounting flanges.
5 Connecting the Flood Sensor to the OWRGD The flood sensor connects to the OWRGD through an inline connector. Warning! The OWRGD must be commissioned before the flood sensor is connected to ensure proper event logging. After the flood sensor is attached to the OWRGD, perform a Check Endpoint in FDM tools to verify the flood sensor is connected. Connecting the Flood Sensor Inline Connector 1.
OpenWay Riva Gas Disconnect Installation Guide 5 Connecting the Flood Sensor to the OWRGD 4. Twist the inline connector's blue tab until it aligns with the OWRGD connector's tab. 5. Secure a tamper seal through the connection tab's opening to complete the connection.
OpenWay Riva Gas Disconnect Installation Guide 5 Connecting the Flood Sensor to the OWRGD 6. Complete the installation by securing the flood sensor's cable with cable ties or wire guides. Coil and secure any excess cable near the OWRGD.
6 OWRGD Operations The OWRGD can be programmed and read with an FC300SR handheld computer or an Itron Mobile Radio connected to a user-supplied laptop. Programming the device requires Field Deployment Manager (FDM) Tools version 4.1.0. FDM Tools provides the interface to operate the OWRGD with these OWR-GD categories.
