Recording Times.

Readings taken later in the day may be incorrect due to evaporation of some of the water collected.

Therefore, it is better to measure and record at 9:00am every day.

Measuring The rainfall is easy, just follow these 5 steps :

1,   Remove the catchment funnel and lift out inner cylinder which holds 25mm of water.

2,   When the measure is under 25mm, you read the result directly off the mm scale.

3,   Sometimes the rainfall will exceed 25mm and the water will overflow into the outer cylinder.  When this occurs, you will need to measure the overflow which has flowed into the outer cylinder. You now pour this water into the 25mm cylinder and count the number of times the 25mmm cylinder is filled.

Next, measure the remaining water in mm.

eg.  4 measures (including the already full inner cylinder) = 100mm + 13mm balance = 113mm of rain.

4,   The water is emptied into a measuring  jug to measure the volume and record it.

5.,   Reassemble the  RainMax Rain Gauge.
