How to maintain the self-reporting rain gauge

Rainfall is one of the important parameters of meteorological elements. Precipitation is a phenomenon in nature. It can both benefit humanity and bring disaster to humanity. Therefore, the accurate measurement of precipitation intensity and precipitation has always been an important issue faced by meteorological units in the country. Rainfall is also an important parameter for meteorological elements observed by meteorological departments. In recent years, there have been certain developments in the detection of temperature, humidity, and humidity in the environment. They all have their own corresponding detection instruments. The monitoring of wind speed is wind anemometer, while the monitoring of temperature and humidity is a temperature and humidity monitor. Rainfall monitoring is even more lagging behind. A detection instrument directly uses a self-reporting rain gauge. This is a professional measurement instrument for measuring rainfall and is widely used by various regions.

In the process of using the self-reporting rain gauge, regular maintenance is still required to ensure the accuracy of the measurement results and also to prolong the service life of the instrument. In the process of using the market, maintenance can be performed according to the following detection methods: 1 Regularly observe the horizontal bubble (unscrew the outer nut and open the cover to see it on the chassis). If the horizontal bubble is not in the center circle, use a small spanner to adjust the horizontal screw. Do not use too much force during adjustment to prevent the chassis foot from breaking. 2 Regularly check the inside of the water container for clean conditions, such as dust, leaves, insects, etc. The net cage inside the water trap can be cleaned by loosening the lower end of the fixing nut. 3 The internal measurement structure of the instrument should be cleaned regularly, but during the cleaning process, care should be taken to prevent internal damage.

The rainfall range of the self-reporting rain gauge: 0.1 to 4 mm/min, rainfall accuracy: ±0.4 mm, resolution: 0.1 mm. Meet the measurement requirements of most areas.
