The Plastic Rain Gage is made of clear tough butyrate and measures up to 11 inches (280 mm) of precipitation. The internal measuring tube, with a capacity of 1.00 inch, is graduated to 0.01 inch or 0.2 mm. Precipitation greater than 1.00 inch overflows into the outer cylinder and is measured by pouring into the measuring tube. The receiving funnel and measuring tube are removed for collection of snow. A sturdy, rust-proof mounting bracket is included. Orifice is 4 inches in diameter (102 mm). Gage height is 14 inches (356 mm).
