The Global Rain Gauge is a durable weather instrument for monitoring rain
rate and total rainfall. With minimal care it will provide many years of
services. It was designed by the National Weather Service to provide
a reliable, low-cost tipping bucket rain assessment. Its simplicity
of design assures trouble-free operation, yet provides accurate rainfall
measurements. The unit has an 8" orifice and is shipped
complete with mounting brackets and 50' of two-conductor cable. The
tipping bucket mechanism activates a sealed reed switch that produces a
contact closure for each 0.01", 0.2 mm or 1 mm of rainfall.
NOTE: If your application does not require such an
industrial-strength raingauge, please see information about our low-cost
tipping bucket rain gauge, RG200.
