Tipping bucket raingauge Specifications Sensor type: Tipping bucket Output: 0.1 second switch closure Switch: Sealed reed switch Sensitivity: 1 tip per 0.01", 1 tip per 1 mm, or 1 tip per 0.25 mm Accuracy: ± 2% up to 2"/hr Contact rating: 3 watts, 0.25 amps, 24 Vdc Size: 8" dia x 13.75" high

Acoustic disdrometer Minimum drop size ~ 0.5 mm

2DVD—video disdrometer

Determines both size and shape which are important for developing polarimetric based relationships as we will see later.
