iCon™ Form 2S and Form 12S MetersAssembly Diagram / Physical Description
Assembly Diagram / Physical Description
The AirPoint iCon Meter was designed to be assembled and disassembled without the
use of tools. This modular design allows you to upgrade or repair a unit quickly and
easily. The basic components of the iCon™ meter are depicted below and detailed
following the diagram.

POWER SUPPLY
BOARD
Base Assembly
The meter’s Base Assembly is molded from highly durable thermoplastics that provide
a stable platform for the meter’s Sensor Module, Register display board and up to two
additional option boards. The blades (or blade assembly) from the Sensor Module
extend through the Base Assembly to connect to the service socket of the main power
system.
Sensor Module
Power Supply
The iCon™ meter uses a capacitive tap to provide a regulated voltage to the Sensor
Module and the AirPoint iCon 0652 board. The power supply can withstand a voltage

transient as described in IEEE C62.41, Level C and applied in accordance with
Section 5 of the ANSI C12.20-1998.
Current Sensor
Current is measured using a proprietary air-coupled current transformer. Sensor
data, quantities proportional to the time derivative of the current, is streamed to the
on-board metering chip.
AirPoint iCon RF Board / Meter Display
The RF Board / Meter Display consists of the AirPoint iCon radio board which is a
frequency hopping radio operating in the 913.75MHz to 916.25MHz range. An LCD
display is used to display the readings collected from the Sensor Module.
Register Cover
The Register Cover is an opaque shield that protects the meter’s internal boards from
external tampering and serves as the mounting surface for the nameplate. With the
exception of the LCD screen and test LED, no internal components can be viewed
through the Register Cover.
Nameplate
The meter’s nameplate, which is compliant with ANSI C12.10 – 1997, includes a
unique, factory-generated bar code that can be used in a billing database.
Meter Cover
The Meter Cover of each iCon™ meter unit is a transparent polycarbonate enclosure
that is interchangeable, abrasion resistant, and contains UV inhibitors to prevent
discoloration. This single-piece assembly locks with the Base Assembly to fully
enclose the meter and protect the internal components from weather, the forces
applied during installation and extraction, and the impact from a fall of up to five feet.
After final calibration at the factory, the Meter Cover and Base Assembly are sealed
with a T-bar, which will provide evidence of tampering.
