Product Introduction

The KH.JD Tipping Bucket Rain Gauge is a high-precision automatic rainfall sensor designed for continuous precipitation monitoring in hydrological, meteorological, and environmental observation systems.

It measures rainfall intensity, total precipitation, and duration in real time using a mechanical tipping bucket mechanism, providing reliable and standardized rainfall data for field applications.

This sensor is widely used in flood early warning systems, hydrological monitoring stations, meteorological networks, and IoT-based weather observation platforms, enabling accurate long-term rainfall data collection in outdoor environments.

How It Works

Rainfall is collected and directed into a calibrated tipping bucket. Each tip represents a fixed amount of precipitation, which is recorded electronically and transmitted for data analysis.

This ensures:

• Continuous rainfall measurement
• Stable long-term operation
• Reliable precipitation quantification
