Benefits and Features
Suitable for all types of climates and intensities of rainfall
Extremely robust and versatile for applications where data precision and accuracy are critical
Unique aerodynamic shape for accuracy of measurements, even in windy or exposed sites - supported by published academic research (Colli et al, 2018 & Pollock et al, 2018)
Precision injection moulded internal components resulting in outstanding accuracy and repeatabiilty
Meets all WMO recommendations for funnel area
External levelling bubble for easy levelling
No base plate required. Adjustable mounting feet also make levelling this gauge straightforward
Improved nozzle design - repeatable performance up to 1000 mm/hr

Technical Description
The internal tipping bucket mechanism has been designed o ensure maximum performance repeatability.
The ARG314 is a UV-stabilised injection-moulded plastic replica of the very successful, highly accurate aluminium SBS range.
Traditional cylinder-shaped rain gauges are inaccurate due to the effect of wind blowing over the orifice. The physical presence of the gauge causes air to accelerate, carrying rainfall away from the collecting vessel. The effect of this can be up to a 20% reduction in rainfall catch. The unique aerodynamic shape of this range of scientific standard rain gauges reduces this effect, ensuring a high level of confidence in the accuracy of our measurements.
Cables are available in 6 m, 10 m, 15 m, 20 m & 30 m lengths.
