2 • OVERVIEW OF FEATURES - RAIN COLLECTOR
Removable Debris Screen
The Debris Screen prevents leaves and sticks from
entering into the rain collector. Remove and clean
debris periodically to ensure collector accuracy.
Removable Rain Collector Funnel
The Funnel is specially designed with a large 6"
opening to maximize the rain collection area.
The funnel is removable for easy cleaning. To remove,
simply rotate the funnel in either direction and pull out.
Remove Packing Material
The Rain Collector and Rain Collector Tipping Bucket are
packaged with a protective material inserted to prevent
excessive movement during shipping. Carefully remove
all of these materials and discard them.
Collector Upper Casing
The Collector Upper Casing encloses the sensor/battery
compartment component and seals the collection
tipping bucket from wind and non-metered rain drops.
To remove upper casing from lower casing, press inward
on side tabs and lift up carefully.
Battery Compartment & Electronics Box
The Battery Compartment & Electronics Box component
of the rain collector slides into place on slots and
encases the batteries and other electronics components.
To remove this component, squeeze the two tabs and
gently slide the box out. Take care that the box is re-installed
in the correct manner (with the batter compartment cover
facing the outside of the Upper Casing) when slid back in.
Rain Collection Tipping Bucket
The Rain Collection Tipping Bucket collects a metered
amount of rain and tips to automatically empty, allowing for
continuous rain measurement.
Collector Lower Casing Base
The Collector Lower Casing Base supports the entire rain
gauge and also serves as a mounting base. It is very
important that the base be placed on a flat, level surface for
proper operation.
