5. Insert the U-bolt around the pipe and into the holes in the plate/Leak Sensor assembly. Secure the U-bolt
with the wing nuts. Tighten the wing nuts until snug (to a minimum of 5-inch pounds) to prevent device
rotation on the pipe. After the second wing nut is tightened, check the Leak Sensor to verify the device is
snug. If the sensor moves, tighten the wing nuts until there is no movement.
Caution To ensure reliable Leak Sensor operation and a secure pipe mount:
● Do not tighten the Leak Sensor to more than 20 inch-pounds. Over-tightening could damage the
Leak Sensor housing and/or the pipe.
● Mount leak sensor gel cap connections securely to the mounting pipe.
● Extension cable lengths must not exceed 300 ft. Extension cabling from Itron is stranded, tinned,
and pre-bonded for reliability and proper connection to gel cap connectors. Extension cabling
manufactured by non-approved Itron manufacturers may result in unreliable and problematic
connections. Contact Itron Support for more information.
Remote Mount Installation
Connect the endpoint to the register as described in Connecting, Initializing, and Programming on page 7.
Using a back plate, create a template by drilling through a back plate lug slot to mark the position of the
screw. Use the drilled back plate as your mounting template.
The arrow on the endpoint must point up when installation is complete.
