Rainfall gauge

Rainfall measurement device (rain gauge). This device is one of several that are placed at specific locations to collect rain. The rain falls through a defined aperture and into an inner can. The contents are then measured, normally once a day, by pouring into a measuring jar. Universally used by professional and amateur meteorologists, these models are also ideal for educational, industrial and other applications. Manufactured by Munro
