The Encodalizer™
Model PTE
AMI Gateway and Remote Display
for Pulse-Output Flow Meters!...
The Encodalizer™ – Do you have a pulse-capable flow
meter that you would like to connect to an AMI network
(fixed-base, cellular, drive-by), but it does not have a 3-
wire encoded output?
The Encodalizer provides the solution! – as it can accept
a generic, pulse-per-volume input signal, and convert into
a 3-wire, encoded output!
Furthermore, the encoded output is user-selectable as
either Sensus Protocol (4-9 digits) or Neptune Protocol
(6 or 8 digits). These protocols form the de facto standards
for water AMI connnectivity throughout North America.
Pulse-Input flow meter types:
Wastewater Meters
Magnetic Flow Meters
Venturi Meters
Weir Meters
Parshall Flume Meters
Turbine & Propeller Meters
Ultrasonic Meters
Positive Displacement Meters
Coming Soon: The Encodalizer will soon be offered
with the ability to provide translation between encoder
protocols: Elster/ Sensus/ Neptune Inputs and Neptune/
Sensus outputs. Please check back in for progress updates.

  • Page 4 Pulse Input Meter Wiring – Wiring Notes: 1. Input Pulse MUST BE a No-Voltage / Dry-Contact-Type (Reed Relay, Open-Collector, or Open- Drain). The Input Pulse MUST NOT BE a Voltage Pulse, as this will cause irreparable damage to the Encodalizer. Such misuse is not covered under warranty. 2.

  • Page 8 QUICK-START GUIDE – Physical Installation (Must Read!): 1. The Model PTE Encodalizer™ is designed as an indoor/outdoor device (but never submerged!), capable of being opened and re-sealed, thereby allowing for the user to protect the wiring and replace depleted batteries. With these capabilities also comes a heavy responsibility upon the user to properly re-seal the unit! 2.
  • Page 9 Initial Setup: 1. Open Up the Encodalizer by Unscrewing the Four (4) Screws. 2. Insert the Pulse/Power Cable Through the Left Cable Gland. 3. Land the 2 Pulse Wires on the Meter Terminal Block: 2(+), 3(-). Input Pulse MUST BE a No-Voltage / Dry-Contact-Type (Reed Relay, Open-Collector, or Open- Drain).
