Product Introduction

The KH.JDW Windproof Tipping Bucket Rain Gauge is a specialized precipitation monitoring sensor designed for coastal areas, islands, marine environments, and high-wind locations where traditional rain gauges may experience measurement errors caused by airflow interference.

Featuring a wind-resistant structural design combined with a precision tipping bucket mechanism, the KH.JDW provides stable and accurate rainfall measurement under challenging weather conditions.

The 304 stainless steel construction offers excellent corrosion resistance and long-term durability, making it suitable for outdoor deployment in harsh environments with strong winds, high humidity, and salt exposure.

The windproof rain gauge is widely used in:

• Coastal meteorological stations
• Island weather observation networks
• Flood early warning systems
• Hydrological monitoring stations
• Marine environmental monitoring platforms
• IoT-based weather observation systems

It provides reliable precipitation data for weather analysis, disaster prevention, and environmental monitoring applications.

How It Works

Rainfall enters through the wind-resistant collection funnel and flows into a calibrated tipping bucket mechanism.

The aerodynamic structure reduces rainfall measurement errors caused by strong airflow, ensuring more accurate precipitation collection in windy environments.

Each bucket tip represents a fixed rainfall amount. The generated pulse signals are recorded and transmitted for monitoring and data analysis.

This design provides:

• Stable rainfall measurement under high wind conditions
• Reduced airflow interference
• Reliable long-term precipitation data collection
• Continuous automatic monitoring capability
