Single spoon tipping-bucket technology
A technology full of features and benefits
The DNA of the product is our patented unique self-emptying single spoon tipping bucket, which is one of the most accurate measuring instruments in the market for rain sensors. Using this technology provides you with a series of features and benefits:
- Very accurate measurements: +/- 2 %
- Flexible with many options in resolutions when fitted on our Profesional and Meteorological.
- Standard is 0.1 – 0.2 – 0.25 or 0.5 mm.
- Only one adjustment screw, which makes it easy to recalibrate.
- Easy to replace when maintaining the rain gauge.
- Bucket made in POM, which is a more dismissive material and therefore makes dust and dirt not stick so easily on the spoon and maximize water release.
How does the tipping bucket-technology work?
The magnet always exerts just enough tension to allow the measuring spoon to empty in one quick movement (less than 300 ms) and then return to its normal position, ready to once again collect precipitation. This means the counter weight always remains the same opposite to other conventional two spoons tipping bucket rain gauges.
