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 data logger program to match the
funnel size. See
(p. 8) 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
at back of manual).
