The CDY-12A Economical Tipping Bucket Rainfall Sensor is a tool for measuring rainfall. It turns rain into a pulse signal. This sensor has nets that keep out insects, a nozzle that blocks freely, and a built-in leveler.
It is used in many areas such as weather, water studies, farming, forestry, and monitoring stations. We can use a rainfall recorder to track rain. It will measure how much it rains and when it falls.
Meteorology and climate research:
◉In a standard weather station, the plastic tipping bucket rain sensor is important for measuring rain. Install it in an open, flat area to collect rain accurately.
◉When raindrops fall into the sensor’s rain socket, the funnel inside collects them into the hopper. As rain builds up, the hopper will flip when it collects a set amount of water. This amount can be 0.1 mm or 0.2 mm of rain. Each flip makes an electrical signal.
Hydrology and water resources field:
◉Precipitation is a key factor that affects the water level of rivers and lakes. Install plastic rain sensors in the area around a river or lake to monitor rainfall in real time. Researchers use this rainfall data with river models to predict changes in water levels.
◉Accurate rainfall data is important for managing water resources. Using plastic tip-over rain sensors for a long time helps you learn about rainfall in an area. This information shows the total amount of water resources available. In water planning, planners can use this data to figure out how much water is available.
Agricultural field:
◉In farming, knowing about rainfall is very important for smart irrigation. Farmers use plastic rain drop sensors in their fields to measure rain in real time. They can use the data from these sensors to decide if they need to irrigate.
◉Agricultural production is at risk from floods and droughts. Farmers can use a plastic tipping bucket rain sensor. This tool helps warn them about farming disasters.
When too much rain falls, it can cause flooding. This happens when the farmland cannot drain the excess water.
