The RK400-01 Tipping Bucket Rain Gauge (self-emptying bucket rainfall sensor) is an instrument for testing rainfall in the nature. In order to meet the requirement of information transmission, processing, recording and display, the amount of rainfall is converted to pulse output. It can be widely used in weather stations, Hydrometric stations, Agriculture & forestry, defense & field monitoring stations. It can provide the original data for flood-prevention, water-supply system, and reservoir water management in plant.
Features:
- Compact size for easy use
- High accuracy, good stability
- Mesh in the funnel preventing debris such as leaves and insects from entering the working of rain sensor
- Well made tipping bucket with low resistance
- Highly polished stainless steel construction
- Horizontal Bubble in the bottom
Applications:
- Water supply system
- Hydrologic monitoring
- Natural disaster monitoring
- Agrometeorological research
- Climate research
