OVERVIEW

 

The Rimco Rain Gauge, with the proprietary addition of INCYT smart sensor technology for plug and play commissioning, is designed to meet the guidelines of the World Meteorological Organisation and is a professional grade tipping bucket rain gauge with 8” (203mm) diameter collecting funnel and 0.2mm tip. It utilises a cast metal base, spun copper collecting funnel with machined gunmetal rim and gold plated tipping bucket to provide a proven accuracy of /- 1% at rainfall intensities up to 250mm per hour and /- 3% at rates up to 500mm per hour.

 

This product is the sensor only / replacement.

 

 

HOW IT WORKS

 

The Rimco Rain Gauge utilises INCYT’s XR network, so you’re not restricted to only using this in areas where you’ve got a cellphone signal - as long as your rain gauge is within reach of a INCYT base station, you’re able to use the rain gauge! The rain gauge gets paired up with an INCYT blue node, giving you up to 8 (!) years of battery life!

 

The rainfall data is available to you through the INCYT cockpit, which allows you to share this data with other users on your INCYT account as well. You are able to see rainfall totals for 24 hour, 7 day, 30 day or 365 day periods. Alarms can be set for these same periods as well with both high and low configurations available. Alarms can be sent via email, text or in-app notifications to yourself or anyone else you choose to send this alarm to.

 

A variety of plans is available - the ‘Pro’ plan for example offers you continuous sampling with data transmission every 15 minutes; higher or lower frequency data transmission plans can be selected at any time.
