ND-TBRG Tipping Bucket Rain Gauge
What is the ND-TBRG? The ND-TBRG is a professional tipping bucket rain gauge for accurate precipitation measurement. Built on the proven WMO-reference tipping bucket method, it delivers 0.1 mm per tip resolution with a 200 cm² catchment area — the standard for hydrological networks, agricultural weather stations and flood-warning systems connected to the yDoc ML-525 datalogger.
