A meter assembly includes: a meter housing including a top portion, the top portion including a mounting boss, the mounting boss including an engagement hook and protruding axially from a top surface of the top portion of the first housing; a register housing connected to the top portion of the first housing and configured to rotate with respect to the first housing about a rotation axis; and a retaining fastener connecting the second housing to the first housing, the retaining fastener including a one of a hook and a flange configured to engage the mounting boss and a one of a hook and a flange configured to engage the second housing.

Adjustable meter with tamper detection

Disclosed is a pit lid antenna assembly including an antenna having an upper section and a lower section; and an antenna casing having a casing wall having an inner surface, the inner surface defining a first antenna slot, the first antenna slot sized to accept a portion of the lower section of the antenna.

Pit lid antenna and casing

Disclosed is a meter assembly including a first housing; a second housing; and a retaining fastener connecting the second housing to the first housing, the second housing adapted to rotate relative to the first housing. Also disclosed is a meter assembly including a housing; a linkage arm; and a retaining fastener, the retaining fastener connecting the linkage arm to the housing, the linkage arm adapted to rotate relative to the housing.

A magnetic shield may be mounted to a water meter housing to protect the magnetic operation of the water meter from a tamper magnet, including both smaller, flexible tamper magnets and larger, strong tamper magnets. The shield may include a contoured portion and a barrier portion. The barrier portion may provide a physical and spatial barrier between a larger tamper magnet and an internal magnetic sensor of the water meter. The contoured portion may conform to the housing of the water meter and may prevent smaller tamper magnets from being maneuvered close to the housing of the water meter. The shield may be made of a ferrous material suitable for attenuating a magnetic field. The shield may receive a looped sensor transmission cable within a U-shaped opening enabling the shield to be installed and/or removed from the water meter without the sensor transmission cable being detached from the water meter.
