Product advantages

Weighing system with automatic emptying

Like all rain gauges in the rain[e] series, the rain[e]314 uses a sensitive measuring principle and meets all requirements of WMO Guideline No. 8. Real-time measurements for the quantity and intensity of all liquid precipitation in the range of 0–720 mm/h are output accurately and reliably. The rain[e]314 has a compact, robust design and features state-of-the-art weighing technology inside. Fully automatic continuous emptying prevents overflow and measurement errors and enables maintenance-free long-term use even under extreme weather conditions.

  • Output of precipitation intensity, amount, and total amount parameters in real time
  • Measurement of each individual drop with amazing resolution
  • Compact design with enlarged collection area 
  • Best connectivity thanks to a wide range of interfaces for easy system integration
  • Version with highly efficient heating for low power consumption
  • Easy calibration using a reference weight

Tretyakov-style windshield

Tretyakov-Style Wind Shield for precipitation sensors

A Tretyakov-style wind shield surrounds a precipitation sensor to block approaching winds. The funnel-shaped design ensures excess wind is directed toward the ground, reducing the speed of winds in the direct vicinity of the sensor.

The wind shield ring is equipped with vertical stainless steel lamellas arranged in a circle with the bottoms coming together in a slightly conical fashion. The lamellas are connected to each other with a chain, and can be moved horizontally to create directional protection.

The Tretjakov wind shield consists of a frame, metal segments, and accessories for quick and easy installation.

  • Different measuring heights for all common precipitation sensors<
  • Durable and solid due to corrosion-resistant V4A stainless steel
  • Simple and quick installation
