Remove the index dials from the gas meter. Also remove all of the original
gasket material. Replace the index if it is damaged or if the gears are
discolored.
WHEN REPLACING AN INDEX YOU MUST ENTER THE METER READ
INTO THE HANDHELD AND IN THE COMMENT SECTION WRITE
“INDEX EXCHANGED”. For Index visual verification and exchange on
American meters see Appendix B, Visual Inspection of Indexes.
Figure 5.3 American Removing the Index (one screw on each side)
Clean the area behind the index and cover gasket surface on the meter with a
wire brush and gasket scraper.
Make sure that the location of the dials on the meter is free of any debris that
may hamper module installation.
Slide the index attachment clips out to the sides before beginning to install
module on meter.

Align the meter drive dog with the module wiggler and install the Meter
Module base to the meter by screwing in the two captured standoff screws.
The torque requirement for fastening the screws is 10 inch‐pounds. For
modules manufactured starting in May 2005, for proper alignment see
Appendix A, Aligning the New American Meter Drive Dog.
Check the wiggler on the meter module for free movement. Wiggler should turn at least 10
degrees but no greater than a 1/4 turn. If it is binding, then disassemble and realign. This is
also known as the “wiggle” test.
Improper alignment or tightening of the standoff screws may result in module or meter
failure.

Use torque screwdriver set at 10 inch-pounds to install the two captured standoff screws
for all module installations.
Attach the index to the Meter Module housing with the captured clips on the
standoff screws. Be sure that the clips are extended fully towards the outside
edge of the module when you fit the index to the module, and align the index
dog of the index to the moduleʹs wiggler. Push the two clips towards the
inside of the module to secure the index.After the index is installed, the
installer must turn the proving dial on the index to ensure the index is
properly engaged with the module.

11 Install new red tamper seals over two diagonal screws (upper right and lower
left, or upper left and lower right).
12 Clean up any debris from the retrofit and installation processes, and leave a
door hanger tag with any appropriate information filled in. Make sure to
always leave a door hanger.
13 At the end of the day, the installer returns to the Cross Dock for the check‐in
process. The installer should also turn in inventory of unused, defective, or
broken gas Meter Modules. The Installer must check in all Handhelds issued.
The installer is responsible for reconciling any discrepancies in changed data
before the check‐in process can be completed. Meters Modules will not be
checked out to an installer who has not completed the previous dayʹs check‐in
process.

screws is 4‐8 inch‐pounds. Refer to ʺRockwell/Equimeter/Sensus: Attaching the
Meter Module and index to the meterʺ on page 5‐10.
Do not over tighten the standoff screws; if module wiggler and meter drive dog are not
aligned properly it may result in a meter failure.

INSTALLATION
This chapter outlines change out procedures for:
•
American CG3
•
Rockwell/Equimeter/Sensus Meter Module Installation
•
Sprague/Actaris Meter Module Installation
•
Schlumberger/Actaris Meter Module Installation
Refer to Appendix E, Difficult/Non‐compatible Commercial Retrofits for difficult and
non‐compatible module installation instructions.
TO BEGIN C&I METER MODULE INSTALLATION
The first four steps for every gas meter module install are the same for every
manufacturer. Prior to beginning the commercial meter module retrofit, make
sure you have followed the steps in ʺIf the installers come across any meters where a
medical alert code appears in the Handheld for that address they are to discontinue the
exchange, enter the appropriate skip code and move to the next exchange.Prior to Meter
Exchange or Module Retrofitʺ on page 3‐1.
Remove the cover from the Meter Module.
Plug the programming cable from the Handheld into the programming
power cable on the Meter Module. Refer to Chapter 2, Using the HandHeld
Device.
Program the Meter Module and check the Handheld for successful
programming (example, Dials = 4, Meter ID = 0123456G, Meter Constant = 2).
Remove the tamper seals and index cover from the original gas meter.

self‐tapping screws provided. The torque requirement is 6‐10 inch pounds.
Ensure that the gasket is in place and the wires are not pinched. Install the
tamper seals.
Check condition of the index for looseness of index pointers on shaft, cracks on face
enamel, or peeling. Ensure that the index is not bound up. Replace the index if dials are

button until 10 beeps are received. See Appendix C, Using the RF Buster for
more information.
16 Clean up any debris from the retrofit and installation processes and tie any
loose cables with tie wraps.
17 Proceed to the next installation site.
18 At the end of the day, return to the Cross Dock for the check‐in process. Turn
in inventory of unused, defective, or broken gas Meter Modules. Check in the
handheld computer. The installer must reconcile any discrepancies in the
changeout data before the check‐in process can be completed. The crossdock
will not check out any Meter Modules to an installer who has not completed
the previous dayʹs check‐in process.
Rockwell/Equimeter/Sensus Meter Module Installation
There are two types of Rockwell modules: Center and Offset. The left side
illustrates center proving dial and the right side illustrates offset proving
dial.Verify the appropriate type before starting installation.

screws provided. The torque requirement is 6‐10 inch pounds. Ensure that the
gasket is in place and the wires are not pinched. Install the tamper seals.
Check condition of the index for looseness of index pointers on shaft, cracks on face
enamel, or peeling. Replace the index if dials are loose or bound up, or if enamel is cracked
or loose.
10 Install the new index cover. Gently slide the cover over the index to avoid
breaking the counter. Be careful not to damage the dials. Ensure that the
counter and indexes are properly aligned. Verify that the counter is fully
engaged to the index pointers.
