Installation Manual
ENC-UM-01061-EN-05 (August 2014)
IDENTIFICATION
The Badger Meter Absolute Digital Encoder (ADE
®
) register is
available in two versions:
• With a potted three-wire flying lead
• With three terminal screws
The ADE with glass lense is available factory pre-wired to
Badger
Meter AMR 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 ADE with terminal screws features the same permanent
sealing of the register internals, 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 and Fire Service
Meters, each ADE is clearly identified on the face of the dial with an
assembly number, unit of measure and meter model.

Before proceeding with installation, be certain that the meter type
and size correspond, and that the proper ADE configuration has
been supplied for the application.
THE ADE SHOULD ONLY BE CONNECTED TO A BADGER METER
APPROVED PRODUCT. CONNECTION TO AN UNAPPROVED
PRODUCT WILL VOID THE ADE WARRANTY.
CONNECTING AN ADE
Your ADE 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
installation, connect like color wires to maintain proper installation.
To connect to an AMR module, strip approximately 1½ inch of outer
insulation sheath from the ADE 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.
• If the outer foil shield is in place 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 un-insulated
shield drain wire even with the outer sheath. Inspect the inner
signal wire insulation to insure it was not damaged. A ‘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 Drain wire cut off
• Next insert the like color conductors from each cable end into
a Gel-Connector. Ensure that the conductors are through the
crimp bar and all the way to the end of the Gel-Connector.
Area to inspect
Wires to end of Gel-Connector Wires should be visible through
the end
