Chapter 3 Mounting the 100G Series Remote
Gas ERT Module
This chapter provides the instructions to mount the remote ERT module.
Standard installation options
Mount the remote ERT module using the pipe mount or wall mount (flat vertical surface)
procedure.
• Pipe mount. Itron offers a pipe installation kit (CFG-0005-003) to mount the remote ERT
module on a pipe.
• Flat vertical (wall) mount. Installation using the wall mount option places the module on
a wall or other vertical surface.
Select the mounting option that will best work for your system. For example, your setup may
provide the location for a pipe mount but not a wall mount. The preferred mounting location
is near the meter or instrument, but some installations may require an extended cable
length. For example, your installation may require mounting the ERT module around a
corner to avoid RF interference. The remote ERT module supports cable lengths up to 300
feet with a recommended one-splice limitation. Installers must mount the remote ERT
module in a vertical position with the ERT label directional arrow pointed upward.
Warning
: Do not mount the 100G remote ERT module in an orientation other than
vertical (remote ERT module label arrow pointed upward). Violating the mounting
orientation requirements may void the product warranty.
Caution: Upright vertical positioning is critical because:
• The 100G series modules are optimized for communication and require upright
mounting. Any other mounting position could result in reduced RF performance.
• The remote module tilt tamper sensor requires upright mounting. Any other
mounting position can cause issues with the module's tilt tamper detection.
