BadgerMeterjnc. P.O. Box 245036, Milwaukee, WI 53224-9536 (800) 876-3837 / Fax:(888) 371-5982 www.badgermeter.com BadgerTouch TM BadgerTouchTM Technical Automated Meter Remote Module Reading System Brief DESCRIPTION APPLICATIONS: The BadgerTouch rm Single Remote Module coupled with the Absolute Digital Encoder (ADE TM) is a complete electronically encoded close -proximity automated meter reading system, specifi- cally designed for single point remote meter installations. This system can be used with all Badger Meter Recordall Disc, Turbo Series, and Compound meters available today. COMMUNICATION: Communication is accomplished by using com- patible reading devices programmed to read BadgerTouch or SensusTM protocols, such as the VersaProbeT^" or Metre Pro'sTm 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 automated meter reading system offers operating performance in a variety of applica- tions under most climatic conditions. For consistent results, interro- gation 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 ADE. A set of terminal screws on the remote module makes this connection. The ADE is provided prewired with either a T, 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 ADE is allowed. Other wire types may also affect performance. If an additional length of wire is used in addition to that provided with the ADE, 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 AIDE provides permanent glass/metal packaging in a plastic shroud and lid for long lasting, highly reliable encoded meter reading information collection. LICENSE REQUIREMENTS: This 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 approved by Badger Meter can void the user's authority to operate the equipment. No license is required by the utility to operate a BadgerTouch meter reading system.

Recordall"', RTR" and Badger are registered trademarks of Badger Meter, Inc. Recordall® Technical Cold Water Size 3/4" (DN 20mm) Bronze Disc Meter Brief DESCRIPTION Badger Meter offers the Recordall Disc meter in Cast Bronze and a Low Lead Alloy. The Low Lead Alloy (Trade Designation: M35 LL) version complies with NSF/ANSI Standard 61 and carries the NSF-61 Mark on the housing. All components of the Low Lead Alloy meter, i.e., disc, chamber, housing, seals, etc., comprise the certified system. APPLICATIONS: For use in measurement of potable cold water in residential, commercial and industrial services where flow is in one direction only. OPERATION: Water flows through the meter's strainer and into the measuring chamber where it causes the disc to nutate. The disc, which moves freely, nutates on its own ball, guided by a thrust roller. A drive magnet transmits the motion of the disc to a follower magnet located within the permanently sealed register. The follower magnet isconnected to the register gear train. The gear train reduces the disc nutations into volume totalization units displayed on the register dial face. OPERATING PERFORMANCE: The Badger® Recordall® Disc meters meet or exceed registration accuracy for the low flow rates (95%), normal operating flow rates (100 t 1.5%), and maximum continuous operation flow rates as specifically stated by AWWA Standard C700. CONSTRUCTION: Badger Recordall Disc meter construction, which complies with ANSI/AWWA standard C700, consists of three basic components: meter housing, measuring chamber, and permanently sealed register. The water meter is available in bronze and Low Lead Alloy with externally -threaded spuds. A corrosion -resistant thermoplastic material is used for the measuring chamber. To simplify maintenance, the register, measuring chamber, and strainer can be replaced without removing the meter housing from the installation. No change gears are required for accuracy calibration. Interchangeability of parts among like -sized meters also minimizes spare parts inventory investment. The built-in strainer has an effective straining area of twice the inlet size. MAGNETIC DRIVE: Direct magnetic drive, through the use of high - strength magnets, provides positive, reliable and dependable register coupling for straight -reading, remote or automatic meter reading options. SEALED REGISTER: The standard register consists of a straight - reading odometer -type totalization display, 360' test circle with center sweep hand and flow finder to detect leaks. Register gearing consists of self-lubricating thermoplastic gears to minimize friction and provides long life. Permanently sealed; dirt, moisture, tampering and lens fogging problems are eliminated. Multi -position register simplifies meter installation and reading. Generator -type remote reading and automatic meter reading systems are available for all Recordall Disc meters. All reading options are removable from the meter without disrupting water service. TAMPER -PROOF FEATURES: Customer removal of the register to obtain free water can be prevented when the optional tamper detection seal wire screw or TORX®tamper resistant seal screw is added to the meter. Both can be installed at the meter site or at the factory. MAINTENANCE: Badger Recordall Disc meters are designed and manufactured to provide long-term service with minimal maintenance. When maintenance is required, it can be performed easily either at the meter installation or at any other convenient location. As an alternative to repair by the utility, Badger offers various maintenance and meter component exchange programs to fit the needs of the utility. CONNECTIONS: Tailpieces/Unions for installations of meters on various pipe types and sizes, including misaligned pipes, are available as an option.

BadgerMeter, Inc. P.O. Box 245036, Milwaukee, WI 53224-9536 (800) 876-3837 / Fax: (888) 371-5982 ® www.badgermeter.com Model ADETMAbsolute Digital Encoder Technical Brief DESCRIPTION APPLICATIONS: The Absolute Digital Encoder (ADE) is designed for use with all Recordall° Disc, Turbo, Compound and Fire Service Meters to provide connectivity with ORIONr, Badgerx ERP, Badger Touch, and Badger Meter, Inc. approved AMR technology solutions. RESOLUTION: Digital output from the ADE includes the option of either 4, 5 or 6 dial resolution. MOUNTING: The ADE in its shroud assembly uses a bayonet mount compatible with all Recordall disc, turbo, compound and fire series meters. A Torx® seal screw is provided to allow positioning of the register for the most convenient reading and to secure the register to the meter body in a tamper resistant mode. The AIDE can be removed from the meter without disrupting water service. MAGNETIC DRIVE: Direct drive high -strength magnetic coupling through the meter body to the wetted magnet provides reliable and dependable register coupling. SEALED REGISTER: The ADE local register consists of a six -digit straight -reading mechanical odometer totalizer (located in the 12 o'clock position), a 360' test circle with sweep hand, and a flow finder to detect leaks. The register gearing is self-lubricating thermoplastic to minimize friction and provide long, reliable life. Permanent sealing eliminates moisture, dirt, and other contaminants. (The leak rate of the seal is less than 10_6 cc/sec as tested by a helium mass spectrometer.) TAMPER -PROOF FEATURES: Customer removal of the ADE can be prevented by using a tamper resistant Torx seal screw. Torx seal screws are provided as standard accessories with the ADE. Optional tamper detection seal wire screws are also available. CONSTRUCTION: The housing of the ADE is constructed of a strengthened glass lens top and a copper alloy metal bottom. Internal construction materials are thermoplastic for long -life and high reliability. The integrity of the adhesive sealjoining the glass top to the metal base provide unmatched protection in water meter applications. A corrosion and tamper resistant Torx seal screw is provided to secure the ADE to the meter. The shroud assembly is thermoplastic. TEMPERATURE: The operating range of the ADE is -20° C to 49° C (-5°F to 120°F). The water meter should not be subjected to temperatures below freezing. MOISTURE: The ADE achieves true water resistance due to the adhesive technology used in the sealing process. Leak rates less than 10 6 cc/sec. as tested by a helium mass spectrometer, are comparable to a true hermetic seal. Due to this unique sealing process, the ADE exceeds all applicable req uirements of AW WA Standard C707 regarding moisture intrusion. Register fogging and condensation are no longer an issue. WIRE CONNECTIONS: The ADE is provided as either a factory prewired assembly or as a register with pre -sized wire harness available for connection in the field. Operation of the ADE is dependent of the wire length limitations of connected MRT equipment. ELECTRICAL: The electronic circuitry is designed to provide immunity to electrical surges and transients per IEC801-2, IEC801-4 Severity Level 4. BadgerMeter,lnc.

The encoder provides accurate readings by using internal light sources to determine the exact position of the number wheel. This technology eliminates electrical contacts and wipers that could wear out and provides greater long-term performance. No batteries are required to maintain the reading.
