Rain Gauge-1

Portable Rain Gauge Extremely long battery life of up to 5 years Type 202 with heating suitable also for winter operation Data transmission via GPRS to D2W Internet portal with comprehensive options for evaluation through monitoring and data forwarding to alarms Rain Gauge Rain gauge with stand ZMS 156 for field use or with ground plate, data logger and power adapter (optional) The Rain Gauge detects liquid precipitation (rain) falling on the ground. The model equipped with an integrated heating detects solid precipitation (snow or hail) as well. Specifications are subject to change. H:\RM\ez-db-en.cdr / Rev. 02 - 23.01.2013 The measurement is based on the tipping scale principle, where a Reed switch triggers an impulse per 0.1 mm of precipitation. This pulse is passed on to an external counter or can be routed to a PLC for logging purposes. The model with integrated data logger saves the impulses corresponding to date, time and rain level. Thanks to the powerful internal rechargeable battery, this data logger operates self-sufficient and independent from mains power for an extremely long period. The logger automatically logs in with the most powerful GSM network and transmits measurement values to the NIVUS Internet portal Device to Web >D2W< at a fixed price.
