Installation Procedure
There are two parts to this procedure.
First, the pulser must be mounted to the
meter. Once this is complete, you can
mount the MTU remotely or directly on
the pulser using the adapter provided. If
you are mounting the MTU on the pulser,
it can be mounted at either the front or
back of the meter.
Step 1 – If necessary, remove tamper
seals from any of the 4 screws that
secure the index base plate and the two
screws that secure the index box to the
base plate.
Note: If the index base plate has integral
security towers like the one on the left
below, it must be replaced with the flat
style index base plate like the one shown
on the right.
Step 2- Loosen and remove the four
screws securing the index base plate
assembly to the instrument drive. You
may discard these screws as they will not
be re-used. Remove the index box and
base plate assembly from the top of the
meter.
Step 3 – Disassemble the index box from
the base plate by removing the two
screws that secure the index box to the
base plate. You may discard these
screws as they will not be re-used.
