Project Background: What an ERT is. -UGI initiated an AMR
(Automated Meter Reading) program in the mid-1990s and, over the
next 20years, installed over 600,000 meters with an AMR device.
These devices are called endpoints or ERTs (encoder receiver
transmitters).-ITRON’s technical bulletin on predicting ERT Module
Life claims the original 40G or 100Gmodels introduced in 1992 had a
useful life of 20 years, with an estimated battery life of about14
years. The newer generation, 40G (since about 2005), has a
predicted life of 17 to 20 years, including the battery. The ERT
Replacement Program aims to replace ERTs approaching or beyond
their anticipated useful life. This will ensure continuity in UGI’s
ability to read meters remotely, enabling UGI to continue timely
and accurately billing customers. About Us: With Precision Pipeline
