Chapter 2 Installing the 60WP Endpoint

Water Solutions 60WP Endpoint Installation Guide
Through-Lid Mounting
This section describes mounting the 60WP Endpoint in a pit lid that has an 1 3/4-inch, 1
7/8-inch, or 2-inch round hole drilled through it.
CAUTION!
Some pit lids have a molded, recessed cavity that allows Itron 40W-1,
50W-1, and 50W-2 ERT modules to sit flush with the top surface of the lid.
However, the dome of the endpoint retainer for the 60-series endpoints, and
passive radiator antenna, have a smaller diameter and do not fill the pit lid cavity.
This can make the cavity a trip hazard. Itron does not recommend using this type
of pit lid with the 60-series endpoints.
Pit Lids with Holes
This section describes how to install the 60WP Endpoint in a pit lid that already has a 1 3/4-
inch, 1 7/8-inch or 2-inch hole in the lid. The Pit Lid Mounting Kit or the Passive Radiator
Antenna Kit can be used for this application. This section will explain how to install both
types of kits. Please refer to publication PUB-0771-010 for guidance on which kit to install
for different pit lid material and traffic conditions.
NOTE
For lids that require a hole to be drilled, see
