The Kaylux rain gauge is the recommended solution for amateur meteorologists or project work on a tight budget but with scientific accuracy requirements. The rain gauge is based on the UK Met Office standard size and features a proven design. The Kaylux rain gauge is a compact solution, ideal for use in the garden, for example.
The Kaylux rain gauge is available in white and standard green. Both versions have a resolution of 0.2 mm and are made of UV-resistant plastic.
A conventional cylindrical rain gauge introduces a wind error. The physical presence of the rain gauge causes turbulence in the wind field, which can result in measured rainfall amounts that are up to 20% lower.
The shape of the EML rain gauge reduces wind error as well as evaporation error.
The Kaylux rain gauge is an ideal rain gauge for low-budget projects with scientific demands on data acquisition.
The main features of the Kaylux Automatic Rain Gauge are:
- Collection area 200 cm²
- unheated rain gauge
- plastic
- low evaporation error
- small wind error
- easy operation
- high reliability
- low-maintenance
