Rain Gauge
⇓ Description
The Rain Gauge NG 51 of the incident on the surface precipitation (rain, hail and snow is measured).
About a collecting area of 200 square cm of precipitation reaches a tipping bucket, which changes every 2cm² = 0.1 mm.While one half of the tipping bucket is emptied, the other is ready to take up water. The precipitation collector is constructed according tothe requirements of the WMO (World Meteorological Organization).
For winter operation the NG51 is equipped with a thermostatic heating ring. A version without heating is also available.
The precipitation collector NG 51 is made of durable, heat and cold resistant materials such as plastic and stainless.
