Rain gauges

Our FieldGuard rain measurement stations measure the amount of precipitation using a so-called tipping bucket. In this setup, a sensor is connected to a tilting mechanism, and a pulse is generated each time a tilt occurs. Each pulse represents 0.25mm of precipitation. The "collection container" or bucket, as it is called in English, is frost-resistant, robust, and meets the requirements set by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). In addition to measuring the amount of precipitation, these stations can also be used for creating disease models for your crops. Below are the four most common configurations listed, and other configurations are available upon request.
