I need to reposition this Sensus water meter but the 3/4 inch copper pipe on both the inlet and outlet is too short. Rather than heating up each fitting to remove the stubs, I would prefer to replace each fitting with new in the new arrangement. My problem is that I don't know how to identify the fitting. The water meter itself appears to have 1 inch males, but going into each fitting is 3/4 inch copper pipe. So what is the part description or catalog number of the fitting?

Water meter coupling or water meter union.
They're specific to water meters as they can have an anti tamper seal fitted to them to prove removal has taken place.
