  • Rain gauge for measuring rain fall in an automatic weather station having an ultrasonic transducer for transmitting and receiving acustic signals into measurement chamber and programmable to determine water level in measurement chamber
    Patent number: 11531139
    Abstract: A rain gauge for measurement of rain fall. The rain gauge includes: a measurement chamber having an inlet port at one end and a drainage port at the other end, the drainage port being closed by a valve and programmable to be opened at predefined events to release water collected in measurement chamber; a funnel or collector adapted to receive rain fall opens into the inlet port; and an ultrasonic transducer for transmitting and receiving acoustic signals into measurement chamber. The ultrasonic transducer is programmable to determine the water level in measurement chamber. An automatic weather station including the rain gauge is also provided.
