Crimp the Gel-Connector using the Crimping Tool making sure the
plunger is fully seated so there is no visual gap between the cap’on
the plunger and the shell of the Gel-Connector.
Gel connector in the crimping tool
Proper crimp—plunger fully seated
Inspect the Gel-Connector to insure that the conductors did not
back out during crimping and that the Gel-Connector plunger is
fully seated.
Plunger is fully seated
Conductor is all the way through
Conductors are still all the way through to the end of the
Gel-Connector and the plunger is fully seated.
Repeat this procedure for the remaining like color conductors.
If the wire is cut or broken and requires a field splice after initial
installation, connect like colors to maintain proper installation.
PIT INSTALLATIONS
Insert the entire splice assembly into the filled splice tube
P/N 62085-001 as indicated in the figure below. Close the cover
with leads exiting alternate sides as indicated in Figure 2.

HRE WITH TERMINAL SCREWS
OTEE:
N
The HRE with optional terminal screws is suitable for indoor
installation only.
The terminal screws are identified by the letters “R”, “B”, and “G”
(standing for Red, Black, and Green) molded into the screw cavity.
Strip approximately 1-1/2" of outer insulation sheath using the
59989-001 coax stripping tool. Use caution in removing the outer
sheath so that the inner wire insulation is not damaged.
Unwind the outer foil shield from the cable and cut it off even with
the outer sheath using the wire cutting pliers. Cut the uninsulated
shield drain wire even with the outer sheath.
Strip approximately 1/2" of insulation from the inner wires using the
59993-001 wire stripper. Use a screwdriver to loosen the terminal
screws sufficiently to allow the bare wire ends to fit below the screw
heads. Bend the bare wire ends into hook shapes that will closely fit
around the shafts of the terminal screws, and hold the hooks around
the screw shafts while tightening the screws with the screwdriver.
Do not overtighten screws. The hooks should be oriented with the
openings to the right, so that tightening the screws (by turning to
the right) will tend to draw the wire closer to the screw.
Place plastic cable tie P/N 34776-001 approximately 1/4" from end
of outer insulation sheath. Tighten securely for strain relief. Remove
excess cable tie. Ensure that the cable exits the terminal screw cavity
via the opening on the right side of the cavity wall and that cable
tie resides on interior of terminal cover. Place the cover over the
terminal screw cavity and secure by tightening the Torx screw.
TESTING
After connections are complete, test the entire installation including
the HRE, wiring, and remote or pit module for proper operation in
accordance with the instructions supplied with the module.
Install the HRE on the water meter and secure it using the Torx
screw provided.
