ESMYL500 Polycarbonate Material Tipping Bucket Rain Gauge sensor

A tipping bucket rain gauge is a device used to measure liquid precipitation, rainfall intensity, and the start and end times of precipitation. It is widely used in meteorological monitoring and forecasting, hydrology and water resources management, agricultural and ecological research, disaster warning and emergency response, scientific research, and educational experiments, providing critical data support for weather forecasting, flood warnings, and irrigation planning.

product details

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Rainwater enters the rain gauge through the topmost water inlet, falls into the water collection slot, and flows into the tipping bucket through the funnel. When the water accumulates to a certain height (for example, 0.2mm), the tipping bucket loses balance and tips over. Each time the tipping bucket tips, the switch completes the circuit and outputs a pulse signal. By measuring the pulse signals, the amount of rainfall can be determined.
