Low-Maintenance Smart Rain Gauge

Rain Gauge

TianJin kantiantech Technology Co., Ltd

This low-maintenance smart rain gauge solves the high upkeep and poor accuracy of traditional models. Common tipping-bucket gauges face upward, collecting debris and impurities while requiring manual winter covering to avoid snow errors—all needing frequent maintenance. Its key innovations: a flip mechanism that keeps the funnel downward when dry, flips 180° during rain for collection, and discharges residue to prevent scaling; plus a winter dormancy mode that keeps the collector downward to exclude snow. Together, they cut maintenance and boost reliability.
