Appendix A Using gel-cap connectors to
complete wiring connections
This section provides the instructions to complete remote ERT module to meter wiring
connections. Gel-cap connections require:
• E-9R 3M® gel-cap crimping tool
• 3M gel-cap connectors (Itron part number CON-0023-001)
1. Push the two wires into the connector as far as
possible.
Caution: Do not strip insulation from the
ends of the wires before inserting them
into the connector.
2. Place the connector and connector wires into
the jaws of the crimping tool. Ensure that the
wires remain fully inserted in the connector.
3. Squeeze the handles to crimp the connector.
Apply pressure until the cap is fully seated (at
least three seconds).
4. The connector is properly crimped when the
top of the moveable yellow center (1) is flush with
the top of the connector body (2).
Warning: Crimping the connector forces sealant out of the connector. The sealant protects
the inside of the connector against insects, moisture, or other contaminants. The sealant
may cause minor eye and skin irritation. Avoid eye contact. For more information or Safety
Data Sheet (SDS) information, visit the manufacturer website.
