Measuring Rainfall Automatically is Challenging. This System Relies on a Proven Method of Counting Tipping Buckets. The Rain Fills the Upper Half, Causing it to Overbalance and Tip the Other Half. Other Designs Failed Due to Excessive Lightness, Which Causes Surface Tension to Bring the System to a Halt. The Components Are Designed to Fit within a Compact 180mm Length of 110mm PVC Pipe. By Design, the Funnel Occupies the Top Position, with the Tipping Bucket Assembly at the Bottom. It's Essential to Use Stainless Steel or Brass for the Shafts and Embed the Magnet into the 6mm Hole in the Centre of the Bucket. A Reed Switch or Hall Effect Device Can Be Employed to Convert Pulses into Your Station. For Optimal Performance, Position the Unit Outdoors, Directly Under Rainfall.
