  • Water meter transmitter housing
    Patent number: 10732016
    Abstract: A submetering meter housing is sized and shaped to receive and mount a transmitter circuit board in an integrated fashion to the meter to provide electronic meter monitoring of the submetering meter. The submetering meter housing includes a switch circuit board with a counter reed switch that is connected to the count input of the transmitter circuit board, and positioned to open and close in response to the rotation of a permanent magnet included within the meter, and a tamper reed switch that is connected to the tamper input of the transmitter circuit board, and positioned to close in response to the presence of a permanent magnet included in the meter lens, so that disassembly of the submetering meter which separates the tamper reed switch from the meter lens causes a tamper signal to be transmitted by the transmitter circuit board.
