Instrument serves as sensor for quantity and intensity of precipitation, for the digital transmission of measuring values.
The measuring principle is in accordance to the “Guide to Meteorological Instruments No 8” of the WMO. The precipitation is conducted into the tipping bucket via the collecting area and funnel. On achieving the maximum volume capacity the bucket tips over. Each tipping event is acquired contract-free, is linearized, and output for further processing.
