Abstract

A meter register is disclosed herein, the meter register having a register body and a face cap secured to a cup forming an internal cavity, the face cap is sealed to the register body, a microprocessor and an antenna to transmit radio waves that is electrically coupled to the microprocessor are both contained within the internal cavity. A self-contained power source is coupled to the antenna, and a sensor is coupled to the microprocessor and adapted to sense movement of water through a meter. The microprocessor, power source, and sensor are contained within the internal cavity, and the internal cavity is at a different pressure than atmospheric pressure, and environmentally separated from the external atmosphere such that the antenna transmits from the antenna meter volume measurements. A utility meter having the aforementioned meter register is also disclosed.
