Tipping Bucket Product Description
Global Water's RG600 Tipping Bucket is a durable weather
instrument for monitoring rain rate and total rainfall. With minimal care, the tipping bucket will provide many
years of services. All Global Water tipping buckets were designed by the National Weather Service to provide
a low-investment, reliable, industrial, tipping bucket rain gauge. Its simple design assures trouble-free operation,
yet provides accurate rainfall measurements. The tipping bucket has an 8"; orifice and is shipped complete with
mounting brackets and 60' of two-conductor cable. The tipping bucket sensor mechanism activates a sealed
reed switch that produces a contact closure for each 0.01" or 0.2 mm of rainfall. The tipping bucket rain gauge
can be pole mounted or bolted to a level plate.
Global Water's GL500 Tipping Bucket Data Logger adds recording capabilities to the
RG600 Tipping Bucket. The datalogger connects to the tipping bucket's pulse output to record data. In
addition, Global Water offers the RG700 4-20mA Output Tipping Bucket Converter Module to
convert the tipping bucket's pulse output to a current output for use with recording systems that receive 4-20mA signals.
NOTE: If your application does not require such an industrial-strength tipping bucket, please see Global
Water's RG200 6" Tipping Bucket Rain Gauge.
