Davis AeroCone Rain Collector w/Vantage Pro2 Mounting Base

$150.00 USD

Product Description

AeroCone® Rain Collector with Vantage Pro2™ Mounting Base is engineered for the demanding conditions of marine and boating environments, ensuring precise rainfall measurements even amidst high winds. This versatile, stand-alone rain collector seamlessly integrates with your Vantage Pro2 sensor suite or operates independently as part of an EnviroMonitor system, allowing flexible installation tailored to your maritime needs.

Enhanced Accuracy in Challenging Conditions

The AeroCone® Rain Collector is specifically designed to deliver highly accurate rainfall data, adhering to the World Meteorological Organization guidelines. Its self-emptying tipping-bucket design minimizes errors caused by wind interference, making it exceptionally reliable in the dynamic and often turbulent environments encountered on the water.

Flexible Installation Options

Whether you need to install the rain collector separately from the temperature and humidity sensors or integrate it into a comprehensive EnviroMonitor system, the AeroCone® Rain Collector offers the flexibility you require. Its flat mounting base ensures secure installation on various surfaces common in marine settings, providing stability and longevity.

Precision Calibration

Equipped with a 40′ (12 m) standard cable, the rain collector can be easily positioned to optimize performance on your vessel. It offers user-calibration options for measurements as precise as 0.01″ or 0.2 mm, and it is also available as a factory-calibrated 0.2 mm rain collector for immediate accuracy upon installation.
