Integral Endpoint Installation
ORI-UM-00025-EN-19
Removing the Endpoint from the Assembly Housing
OTE:N The endpoint cover connects to the base with three tabs: one in the back and two in the front (closest to
the encoder.)
1. Remove the integral assembly from the meter.
• Remove the security screw at the base of the assembly. Keep the screw for remounting the encoder assembly.
• Turn the assembly (as one piece) 1/4 turn, counter-clockwise and lift the assembly off the meter.
2. With the endpoint side of the assembly facing toward you, grasp the bottom of the cover with one hand on either
side of the endpoint cover base.
3. With your thumbs, push the cover at the center of the base to release the back tab (Figure 40). Then lift up to release
the front tabs and remove the cover from the base.

4. Twist the endpoint to release it from the housing and uncoil the wire.
5. Mount the endpoint according to recommended installation guidelines within the limits of the endpoint wire.
OTE:N The encoder cannot be removed from the assembly housing.
6. Remount the encoder (in the assembly housing) onto the meter bayonet.
• Turn the assembly clockwise 1/4 turn so it locks in place.
• Replace and tighten the security screw.
Reattaching the Endpoint
To reattach the endpoint to the assembly housing, follow these steps.
1. Wrap the wire around the endpoint. Make sure the wire is wrapped tightly and neatly around the endpoint or the
cover will not t.
2. Insert the endpoint base into the shroud bracket.
Adjust the endpoint so the tabs on the endpoint base align with
the openings on the bracket, and the wire at the endpoint base ts
into the opening at the back of the bracket. See Figure 42.
3. When the endpoint is correctly inserted into the bracket opening,
turn the endpoint clockwise to make sure it is secure.
4. Place the cover over the endpoint, with the single tab at the back.
5. When the cover is almost completely on, align the two front tabs
with the openings on the shroud bracket (closest to the encoder)
and then push down until all three tabs click into place.
