Appendix C. Changing Funnels with a
Different Size
C.1 TE525 and TE525MM
The TE525 and TE525MM rain gages use the same tipping mechanism that is
calibrated to tip with the same amount of water. Changing the funnel does not
necessitate changing the tipping mechanism, but it does require changing the
multiplier in the datalogger program to match the funnel size. See TABLE 7-2,
Multipliers for Rain Measurement, for the correct multiplier.
C.2 TE525WS
The TE525WS rain gage uses a different tipping mechanism that is calibrated
differently than the TE525 or TE525MM. The tipping mechanism must be
replaced to work with a TE525 or TE525MM funnel. Send the rain bucket into
the Campbell Scientific repair department for modifications. Contact
Campbell Scientific to obtain an RMA (see Assistance at front of manual).
