Rain collector for PAPAGO Meteo
AeroCone rain gauge with a resolution of 0.2 mm, suitable for connection to the PAPAGO Meteo ETH industrial weather station base unit. Its aerodynamic collector, self-emptying tipping spoon and UV-resistant housing provide reliable rainfall measurement for long-term outdoor use.
The Davis AeroCone 6466M measures rainfall using a self-emptying tipping spoon. Rainwater enters the collector through a debris screen and fills the spoon. Each tip activates a magnetic switch, generating a contact closure corresponding to 0.2 mm of rainfall.
The water then drains through screened openings in the base. The aerodynamic shape helps reduce rainfall collection losses caused by wind. The housing is made of UV-stabilised ABS plastic, while a locking debris screen helps keep the funnel clear.
Supplied bird spikes can be fitted around the collector rim when required. A built-in bubble level makes it easy to position the collector horizontally for accurate measurement. The mounting base supports installation on a pole, post or vertical surface. Choose an open location away from trees, buildings and other obstructions that could affect rainfall collection.
When connected to PAPAGO Meteo ETH, the rain gauge provides rainfall totals over 15-minute, hourly and daily periods.
