RAIN-CL Features

  • 0.2mm Rain gauge
  • Pulse output
  • 4~20mA output via included PI-F Transmitter, 0~55mm/hr

The RAIN-CL Rain Collector  is designed to meet the guidelines of the World Meteorological Organization. Rain enters the collector cone, passes through a debris-filtering screen, and collects in the tipping spoon. The spoon tips when it has collected an amount of water equal to the increment in which the collector measures (0.01″ or 0.2 mm). As the spoontips, it causes a switch closure. The rain water drains out through the screened drains in the base of the collector.

The collector is designed for years of accurate, trouble-free service. The shape is aerodynamically designed to minimize rainfall catch reduction caused by high winds. The body and base of the collector are constructed of tough, UV resistant plastic.

The rain collector comes with a mounting base that can be mounted to a pole or post.

This unit can be added to one of our Fully Mounted Weather Stations or our Small and Medium Weather Systems
