In order to protect the tipping bucket the During operation the tipping bucket lies on the precision buck- dirt spiral must be inserted in the collecting funnel et bearings. To reduce the friction, which is produced at one (Fig.

    100 μA is not nec- essary. The LAMBRECHT data loggers (TROPOS and SYNMET) are equipped with such a bounce-free input. Thus the direct out- put signal of the reed contact can be used. An additional ben- efit is a low-current effect.

    Operating Instruction Precipitation Sensors (15189) + (15189 HL) Initial operation If the sensor system has been completely mounted and elec- trically assembled, the sensor will be ready for operation. An operational check has to be performed. Maintenance and operational check The precipitation sensor is nearly maintenance-free.
