Stainless Steel Tipping Bucket Rain Gauge | 0.1 mm Resolution, RS485 / 4–20 mA
A precision stainless steel tipping bucket rain gauge for accurate precipitation measurement in outdoor and industrial environments. Supports RS485 Modbus, 4–20 mA, voltage, and pulse outputs for easy integration with weather stations, PLCs, and data loggers.
This tipping bucket rainfall sensor converts precipitation into precise electrical signals for reliable monitoring, recording, and transmission. Built with a corrosion-resistant stainless steel body, it is engineered for long-term outdoor deployment in harsh climates, including coastal and industrial locations.
The streamlined tipping bucket mechanism ensures smooth water transfer and consistent tipping performance, while the factory-set cutting edge angle improves measurement repeatability. Multiple resolution options allow the sensor to be matched to application needs—from hydrology and flood warning to smart agriculture and meteorological stations.
With RS485 Modbus RTU, 4–20 mA, voltage, and pulse outputs, the gauge integrates seamlessly with PLCs, RTUs, SCADA systems, data loggers, and IoT platforms.
