Description
AeroCone Rain Collector with Vantage Pro2 Mounting Base
Stand-alone rain collector with a flat mounting base replaces the rain collector on your Vantage Pro2 sensor suite so it can be installed separately; or as part of an EnviroMonitor system.
Rain cone designed for even more accurate data in especially high winds!
Takes the place of the rain collector on a Vantage Pro2 sensor suite for a siting that requires separation of the rain collector and temperature/humidity sensor.
Designed to meet the guidelines of the World Meteorological Organization, our self-emptying tipping-bucket design is exceptionally accurate. Used to display daily and accumulated rainfall on our weather stations as well as rate of rainfall.
Comes with 40 (12 m) standard cable. Rain collector can be user-calibrated for 0.01 or 0.2 mm. Also available as a factory-calibrated 0.2 mm rain collector.
Requires:
- EnviroMonitor Node and Gateway, OR
- Vantage Pro2 sensor suite or Sensor Transmitter Kit and a receiver or console such as Vantage Pro2 console or Vantage Vue console, WeatherLink Live, Weather Envoy, or Vantage Connect.
Includes:
- AeroCone rain cone with grips (NO DAVIS LOGO)
- Base with tipping mechanism
- Bird spikes
- Debris screen that locks in place
- 40 ft (12 m) cable
- Mounting hardware
The Davis Instruments AeroCone Rain Collector with Vantage Pro2 Mounting Base is a precise, stand-alone rain measurement device designed for professional meteorological data collection. It replaces the standard rain collector on your Vantage Pro2 sensor suite, allowing for separate installation or integration within an EnviroMonitor system for enhanced flexibility. The rain cone's aerodynamic design minimizes the impact of high winds, ensuring more accurate rainfall readings during severe weather conditions. Its self-emptying tipping-bucket mechanism conforms to World Meteorological Organization standards, providing reliable measurement of daily and accumulated rainfall rates with high precision. The collector includes a 40-foot (12-meter) cable, enabling versatile placement options, and can be user-calibrated to measure rainfall in 0.01 or 0.2 mm increments, or purchased pre-calibrated at 0.2 mm for convenience. The robust construction includes a debris screen that locks in place, bird spikes to prevent contamination, and a mounting base with grips for secure installation. This rain collector is compatible with Vantage Pro2 and EnviroMonitor systems, requiring a compatible Node, Gateway, or console such as WeatherLink Live or Weather Envoy for operation. It is an essential component for weather stations requiring high-accuracy rainfall data in research, agriculture, or weather monitoring applications. The package includes the AeroCone rain cone with grips (no Davis logo), a tipping mechanism base, debris screen, bird spikes, a 40-foot cable, and mounting hardware, making installation straightforward and reliable for long-term use. Designed to meet rigorous meteorological standards, this rain collector enhances data integrity and supports detailed analysis of rainfall patterns in various environmental conditions.
