Overview

Davis Instruments AeroCone Mountable Base Rain Collectors

Davis Instruments Mountable Base AeroCone Rain Collectors are a tipping spoon style rain gauge designed to meet the guidelines of the World Meteorological Organization. Constructed of tough, UV resistant plastics, the body and base of the collector will endure years of trouble-free service and the aerodynamic shape minimizes rainfall catch reduction caused by high winds.

Rain enters the collector cone, passes through a debris-filtering screen and collects in one chamber of the tipping spoon. The spoon tips when it has collected 0.01 in. (0.2mm) of rain, which causes a switch to close and brings the second tipping spoon chamber into position. The rainwater then drains out through the screened drains at the base of the collector. The mountable base of this rain collector is designed to be installed onto a round pole or to the side of a post and features pre-drilled mounting holes and a built-in bubble level to aid with installation.

Add a stand-alone rain gauge to an existing Vantage Pro2 or Vantage Vue Sensor Suite with a Sensor Transmitter and WeatherLink Live or use with an EnviroMonitor Node and EnviroMonitor Gateway to extend your weather monitoring capabilities (not included).

Includes an attached 40 ft. (12m) Sensor Cable to connect to a Vantage Vue or Vantage Pro2 Sensor Suite, Sensor Transmitter or EnviroMonitor Node.
