BadgerTouch®
Automated Meter Reading System Remote Module
Models HREBT and ADEBT
DESCRIPTION
Applications: The BadgerTouch® Single Remote Module coupled
with the High Resolution Encoder (HRE) or Absolute Digital Encoder
(ADE®) is a complete electronically encoded close-proximity
automated meter reading system, specifically designed for single
point remote meter installations. This system can be used with all
currently available Badger Meter Recordall® Disc, Turbo, Compound,
Combo, Fire Series meters and assemblies.
Communication: Communication is accomplished by using
compatible reading devices programmed to read BadgerTouch
or Sensus protocols, such as the VersaProbe reading wands, to
interrogate the BadgerTouch remote module. The remote module
responds with its serial number, water meter reading, and transmits
data in approximately 2.5 seconds. In the event a tamper condition
exists, the data collector will not receive a reading.
Performance: The Badger Meter BadgerTouch meter reading
system offers operating performance in a variety of applications
under most climatic conditions. For consistent results, interrogation
equipment should be placed in direct contact with the remote
read pad.
Meter Reading Validation: Further validation of the meter
reading can be made automatically by the data collector based
on comparison of high-low audit fields in the record. If the meter
reading is not between these predetermined limits, an error
message is displayed on the data collector display.
Wire Connections: The BadgerTouch Remote Module can be
installed in new or existing installations where remote meter
reading is required. The remote module is connected to the
recommended wire that runs between the module and the HRE
or ADE. A set of terminal screws on the remote module makes
this connection. The HRE or ADE is provided prewired with a
3', 6', 10' 15' or 25' length of wire that is ready for connection in
existing installations. Please see Figure 1 for more information
on connections. To provide best results, a maximum of 75 feet of
wire (Belden #9770) between the remote module and the encoder
is allowed. Other wire types may also affect performance. If an
additional length of wire is used in addition to that provided with
the encoder, a set of gel splices must be made.
Construction: The Badger Meter BadgerTouch remote module
enclosure is constructed of a high impact plastic enclosure designed
for most remote locations. All internal electronic components are
encapsulated to provide environmental protection. The HRE and
ADE provide permanent glass/metal packaging in a plastic shroud
and lid for long lasting, highly reliable encoded meter reading
information collection.

Figure 2: Remote Module Connection
Locate the position of the two mounting holes on the outside of the
building by using the remote module as a template. The Remote
Module should be located in an easily accessible location but
should be within 75 feet maximum wire distance to the water meter
and the encoder using Belden 9770 wire. Additional wire length and
other wire types may affect performance.
Drill a 3/16" wire entry hole at a suitable location in the building
wall. Cut the protective gel cap off the end of the HRE or ADE cable.
Feed the HRE or ADE cable from the water meter through the wall.
Then cut the cable to proper length, making sure you have sufficient
wire to make the connection to the Remote Module.
Wire access to the Remote Module may be from the rear, or through
a bottom or top access port. When utilizing rear access, allow
approximately 8" of extra cable behind the Remote Module to
facilitate making the wiring connections. If using the bottom or top
access port, the thin plastic area of the outer shroud needs to be
snapped off to expose the wire access port. Use a small wire cutting
pliers to snap the plastic.
Installation Data
Strip-back about 1 inch of the outer insulation of the HRE or ADE
cable, being careful not to nick the inner conductors. Strip about
3/4" of insulation from the red and black wires; the green wire is not
used and can be cut off.
The two cable ties act as strain relief, as shown in Figure 3, to
eliminate the possibility of breaking the wire connection at the
terminals if the wire is accidentally pulled. Place the two plastic
cable ties on the outer insulation of the field wire. Tighten securely
and remove the excess cable tie with the wire cutting pliers.
Figure 3: Strain Relief Detail
Tightly wrap one bare wire around one of the terminal screws in
a clockwise direction. (Note: you can place either wire on either
terminal since the device is not polarity sensitive). The terminal
screw should then be tightened to firmly grip the wire between the
screw head and terminal. Repeat this procedure with the other wire
and the other terminal screw. Excess bare wire ends should be cut
off.
If the Remote Module is to be installed in a wet or humid
environment, the terminals and exposed wires must be coated with
an approved electrical insulating compound, such as GE RTV-162
Adhesive Sealant Dow Corning® 4 Electrical Insulating Compound or
Novagard® G661. These compounds protect the terminals and wires
against corrosion which otherwise might affect the performance
and reliability of the BadgerTouch system.
Fasten the Remote Module to the structure using the mounting
hardware that is provided. The module must be securely mounted
to a rigid surface; avoid mounting on loose siding or any type,
as this may lead to wire breakage. Fasten the field wiring to the
building structure and/or existing piping to assure a secure
installation. Use standard fasteners or cable ties. If staples are used,
be careful not to nick or cut into the outer insulation of the field
wiring.
If Additional Wire Length is Required
The HRE and ADE is supplied with a pre-determined length of wire.
Should an additional length of wire be required, it is important
to follow the instructions that are supplied with the HRE or ADE
regarding splicing. Use Belden 9770 wire. Before proceeding with
the installation, be certain that the appropriate field splice kit and
gel splice crimping tool are available to assure proper installation
and that electrical connections are secure and weather resistant.
TESTING
After all connections have been made from the remote module to
the remote cable and from the remote cable to the HRE or ADE, the
testing of the complete BadgerTouch remote system can begin. To
perform the test, a compatible reading device capable of reading
Badger HRE, ADE or Sensus protocol can be used. The reading unit
should be placed on the remote module and the meter reading
collected. This should correspond to the reading on the meter
odometer stack.
LICENSE REQUIREMENTS
The device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation
of this device is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this
device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation. Any changes made by the user not

connectivity to an AMR/AMI endpoint without the need for a field
splice kit.
ENC-DS-00236-EN-01 (June 2013)
Electrical: The electronic circuitry is designed to provide immunity
to electrical surges and transients per IEC1000-4-2, IEC1000-4-4.
Operation of the HRE is dependent on the wire length limitations of
connected AMR/AMI equipment.
Operating Characteristics: The digital reading obtained by
an AMR/AMI device is sensed directly from the position of the
endcoder’s odometer using internal LED light paths to determine
the exact position of each number wheel. This technology
eliminates electromechanical contacts that could wear out, and
provides greater long-term performance.

HR | E High Resolution Encoder
IDENTIFICATION
The Badger Meter High Resolution Encoder (HRE) is available in two
versions:
•
With a potted three-wire flying lead
•
With three terminal screws
The HRE with glass lens is available factory pre-wired to
Badger Meter AMR/AMI products, or may be spliced to other devices
following the instructions below. This version is permanently sealed
to eliminate the intrusion of moisture, dirt, or other contaminants,
and is suitable for installation in all environments, including meter
pits subject to continuous submergence.
The HRE with terminal screws features the same permanent sealing
of the register's internal elements, but does not provide a moisture
resistant enclosure. Therefore it is suitable for indoor installation in
a dry environment only, and is marked as such on the terminal
screw cover.
Available for all Recordall® Disc, Turbo, Compound, Combo and Fire
Service Meters and Assemblies, each HRE is clearly identified on
the face of the dial with an assembly number, unit of measure, and
meter model.
THE HRE SHOULD ONLY BE CONNEC TED TO A BADGER
METER APPROVED PRODUCT. CONNECTION TO AN
UNAPPROVED PRODUCT WILL VOID THE HRE WARRANTY.
CONNECTING THE HRE
Your HRE will have a factory installed three-conductor cable (brown)
for connection to an AMR module.
If the wire is cut or broken and requires a field splice after
initial installa- tion, connect like color wires to maintain proper
installation.
To connect to an AMR module, strip approximately 1-1/2" of outer
insulation sheath from the HRE and AMR module cables using the
59989-001 Coax Stripping Tool. Use caution in removing the outer
sheath so that the inner signal wire insulation is not damaged.
Strip the outer sheath
REQUIRED MATERIAL
62084-001 Field Splice Kit Contents:
•
(3) 59761-001 Gel-Connectors
•
(2) 34776-001 Cable Ties
•
(1) 62085-001 Splice Enclosure
If the outer foil shield remained after removing the insulation
sheath, unwind the outer foil shield on the cable ends and cut it
off even with the outer sheath. Then cut the uninsulated shield
drain wire even with the outer sheath. Inspect the inner signal wire
insulation to insure it was not damaged; any slice in the insulation
of the signal wires could result in a short between conductors
resulting in a tamper condition on the AMR product.
Area to inspect
Sheath and outer foil removed

Area to inspect
Wires to end of gel connector
Wires should be visible through the end
Before proceeding with installation, be certain that the meter type
and size correspond, and that the proper HRE configuration has
been supplied for the application.
ENC-UM-00237-EN-01 (June 2013)
Installation Data
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.
HRE WITH TERMINAL SCREWS
NNOTE: 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.
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.
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.
