This TFA 47.3005.01 measuring device allows you to observe and compare rainfall amounts over time.
With its wireless display, the TFA DROP not only shows you the amount of rainfall but also provides indoor temperature and date/time information.
The transmitter sensor, which must be placed outdoors to accurately collect rain, wirelessly sends the detected data to the main display unit located in your living room.
The cup-shaped transmitter sensor should be installed outdoors ideally at a height of about 60 to 90 cm from the ground, ensuring it is placed where rain can freely fall from all directions and is not blocked by trees or similar objects.
These devices are used both for hobby purposes at home and professionally.
For example, farmers frequently use these rain gauges. Your plants need sufficient watering during summer. If you are involved in farming, owning a rain gauge helps you precisely determine the rainfall amount and plan additional irrigation if needed.
The TFA 47.3005.01 rain gauge comes with many great features. One of them is the ability to view rainfall amounts for the past 12 months. The rainfall data is visualized on a fluctuating scale. You can check rainfall over different periods such as the last 24 hours, the last 7 days, and total rainfall since activation.
An alarm function can also be set. The 24-hour rain alarm notifies you if the rainfall exceeds a limit you individually set. When the threshold is passed, a beep sounds and a symbol flashes on the screen.
