  • Page 2: Dimensional Drawing

    Operating Instructions Precipitation Sensors (15188++) Function Dimensional drawing The weighing precipitation sensor (15188++) measures the rain quantity by a tipping bucket developed by Joss-Tog- nini, the bearings of which have been arranged for low fric- tion. Errors that normally occur due to incomplete draining because of surface tension are automatically compensated by the specific form of the tipping bucket.
