Description
CDY-10A ABS Pulse Rainfall Sensor
CDY-10A The instrument is composed of rain bearing parts and measuring parts. The bearing outlet is Φ160mm. The rainfall sensor is used to measure ground rainfall. The rainfall flows through a receiver into a bucket.When the bucket flows into a certain amount of rainwater, the bucket turns over, emptying the water in the bucket. The bucket begins to receive water again. Each flip action of the bucket is transmitted to the collection system through the dry clarinet into a pulse signal (1 pulse =0.2mm precipitation).

Application
Meteorology and climate research:
In a standard weather station, the plastic tipping bucket rain sensor is basic equipment for measuring rain. Install it in an open and flat area to ensure that you can accurately collect natural precipitation.
When raindrops fall into the sensor’s rain socket, the internal funnel structure gathers them into the hopper. As rain builds up, the hopper will flip when it collects a set amount of water. This amount can be 0.2mm of rain. Each flip creates an electrical signal.
Hydrology and water resources field:
◉Precipitation is one of the key factors affecting the water level of rivers and lakes. Install plastic tip-over rain sensors in the catchment area of a river or lake to monitor rainfall in real time. Researchers combine these rainfall data with river hydrological models to predict trends in river and lake water levels.
◉Accurate rainfall data is essential for water resource assessment and management. By using plastic tip-over rain sensors for a long time, you can learn about rainfall in an area. This helps you understand the total amount of water resources available. In water planning, planners can use these data to calculate the availability of water.
Agricultural field:
◉In agricultural production, understanding rainfall is of great significance for rational irrigation. Farmers install plastic tip-over rain drop detector sensors in farmland to measure precipitation in real time. Farmers can use the rainfall data provided by the sensors to determine whether irrigation is necessary.
◉Agricultural production is vulnerable to floods and droughts. Farmers can use the plastic tipping bucket rain detector sensor as an important tool for agricultural disaster warning. When too much rain falls, exceeding the drainage capacity of farmland, it can lead to flooding
