Precipitation sensors

Vaisala All Weather Precipitation Gauge VRG101

Vaisala All Weather Precipitation Gauge VRG101 features technical innovations that provide higher quality of measurement combined with lower life-cycle costs in all weather conditions.

Vaisala QMR101 Precipitation Sensor

The QMR101 Precipitation Sensor is an economical and accurate rain gauge made of plastic material which is highly resistant to UV-radiation and even frostproof.

Vaisala QMR102 Precipitation Sensor

The QMR102 Precipitation Sensor is an aerodynamically shaped rain gauge designed to minimize the wind originated airflow reducing the catch. Manufactured from UV-radiation resistant plastic, making it a very rugged instrument.

Vaisala DRD11A Rain Detector

Vaisala Rain Detector DRD11A features fast and accurate precipitation detection (ON/OFF). The sensor operates via droplet detection rather than by signal level threshold. The capacitive principle utilizes the RainCap sensor plate.

Vaisala RG13, RG13H Rain Gauge

This instrument uses a tipping-bucket mechanism to produce a contact closure every time it receives a predetermined small quantity of rainfall (0.2 mm). The body and funnel of the gauge are of aluminium alloy.
