Kisters - Model TB3 -Tipping Bucket Rain Gauge

The TB3’s tried and proven design ensures long-term, accurate and repeatable results. It is manufactured from high quality, durable materials ensuring long-term stability in the harshest of environments. It consists of a robust powder-coated aluminium enclosure, an aluminium base, and stainless steel ?nger ?lter and fasteners.

TB3 provides a ?nger ?lter that ensures the collector catch area remains unblocked when leaves, bird droppings and other debris ?nd their way into the catch.

The TB3’s base incorporates two water outlets at the bottom allowing for water collection and data veri?cation.

Maintenance of the TB3 is easy, because removal of the outer enclosure and access to the tipping bucket mechanism and ?nger ?lter assembly is made easy with quick release fasteners.

Output options

TB3 includes a dual output 24 V DC reed switch allowing for output redundancy or the addition of a second data logger. The second output could also be used for connecting KISTERS current meter counter CMCbt paired with the free FCD application that allow for easy and accurate ?eld calibration even in noisy (urban) environments. The reed switch incorporates varistor protection against surges that may be induced on long, inappropriately shielded signal cables.
