Siap-Micros - Model t027 TP200 -Atmospherical Precipitation Sensor
Precipitation transducer, collecting area 200 cm². TP200 is a tipping bucket rain gauge with a collecting area of 200 cm². It is extremely precise, very performant and suitable also for environments where heavy rainfalls easily occur (monsoon or tropical rains).
The tipping bucket consists of a v-shaped element, particularly designed to minimize friction and facilitate the oscillating action of the bucket, ensuring high standards of accuracy. The body is made of aluminium alloy and painted with a special anti-UV paint which ensures long-lasting quality and resistance to the weather events. The TP200 can be supplied in three different versions: TP200-N with impulse/reed contact output, TP200-E and TP200- 12, both equipped with a specific signal conditioning electronics that reduces measurement uncertainties at high intensities of precipitation (both for intensity and amount values). TP200-E version equipped with electronic correction can give on a single connector the reed contact output (rainfall amount), the current output (intensity) and the Modbus serial output (both intensity and amount). TP200-12 version is similar to the TP200-E but it has been designed on purpose to have the SDI-12 standard communication protocol instead of Modbus. TP200-N is also available on heated version, powered at 24V (alternating or direct current). In every version, the sensor is supplied with power and signal cable (12m).
