El TE525MM mide la lluvia en milimetros en lugar de pulgadas. Tiene una boca de 9.66 pulgadas (24.5 cm) siendo este el mas grande de la familia 525. Mide en incrementos de 0.1 mm. El TE525 es de tipo tipping bucket, el agua cae sobre una cucharilla que al llenarse la voltea y marca un pulso de lluvia, este pulso es igual a 0.1 mm de lluvia.
Read MoreThe TE525MM funnels precipitation into a bucket mechanism that tips when filled to its calibrated level. A magnet attached to the tipping mechanism actuates a switch as the bucket tips. The momentary switch closure is counted by the pulse-counting circuitry of our data loggers.

The TE525MM rain gage mounts to a CM300-series Mounting Pole or a user-supplied 1.5” IPS pole. Several pedestal options are available to secure a CM300-series pole to the ground (see Ordering Information). Accurate measurements require the gage to be level.
The TE525MM cannot be directly used with our CS705 rainfall adapter. However, the CS705 is compatible with the TE525WS, and the TE525MM can be converted to a TE525WS by returning it to Campbell Scientific (requires an RMA).
Campbell Scientific offers the 260-953 Wind Screen to help minimize the affect of wind on the rain measurements. This wind screen consists of 32 leaves that hang freely and swing as the wind moves past them.
