rain[e] Weighing Precipitation Sensor

Categories: , Tag:

The rain[e] high resolution precipitation weighing rain gauge manufactured by our AEM sister company, Lambrecht meteo, is available in heated or unheated models.

The rain[e] weighing precipitation sensor offers the highest resolution combined with the most compact design. The unique self-emptying collection system enables the measurement of every single drop with the high resolution of 0.001 mm/m2. Full functionality all year around without antifreeze fluid makes the rain[e] very environmentally friendly.

rain[e] is easy to lift, transport, install and maintain. The small packing volume and the low weight ensure minimum logistical effort.
