Mount Transmitter on meter
Insure the four (4) mounting screws are available and within reach.
Place the AMR Transmitter onto the gas meter, aligning the Transmitter’s shaft
with the gas meter’s male or female wriggler; adjust the Transmitter shaft’s
position by holding it on the front side, and insert pin into hole.
1.
While holding the Transmitter in place, check that the shafts are aligned by
gently rotating the Transmitter’s shaft with your other hand. There should be
just a slight freedom of motion.
2.
Attach the Transmitter to the meter using the four (4) mounting screws with
#3 Phillips screwdriver. Place all screws, then torque down two (2) diagonal
screws. Check shaft alignment again, then tighten the last two (2) screws.
3.
Should two (2) or more screws shear or strip during the installation, the
meter will need to be replaced by a qualified utility representative. Remove
the transmitter and reinstall the index and index cover on the meter with the
original screws. Enter the appropriate information in the Mint HHT and skip
to the next work order.
