Tipping bucket rain gauge

The Peet Bros Tipping Bucket Rain Gauge is equipped with a 20 cm diameter cone and a tipping bucket system, each time the buckets are tipped the rain gauge records 0.25 mm of rain and sends an impulse as an output signal.

For optimal installation of the rain gauge it is recommended to use the optional mounting bracket. 

The bracket is made of painted aluminium. It can be mounted on a vertical surface or on a tube (max. diameter 32 mm). Mounting accessories are supplied: U-bolts and screws.
