The Casella CEL Tipping Bucket Rain Gauge is a reliable and extremely robust transducer, designed as a stand-alone sensor for operation within an existing logging system, such as the Casella CEL Automatic Weather Station. The body and funnel are made from aluminium alloy with an accurately machined septum ring at the top giving an aperture of 400cm2. The tipping bucket mechanism is mounted inside the body on a cast aluminium-alloy base, incorporating a built-in spirit level to ease correct positioning.
The rain gauge comprises a divided bucket assembly, which is pivoted at the centre. Rain collects in one side of the bucket, which then tips when a predetermined volume of water has been collected. The tipping action discharges the collected water and repositions the opposite side of the bucket under the discharge nozzle ready for filling. The bucket tips are monitored by means of a sealed reed switch, capable of indefinite operation, thus ensuring that this instrument has a long working life.
