Devices – Precipitation Transmitter, Laser Precipitation Monitor, 3D Stereo Disdrometer, Rain Monitor etc.
For the electronic data acquisition of precipitation, Thies Clima offers sensors that record precipitation mechanically, optically, capacitively and by means of radar. The measuring principle used depends on the measuring task and often depends on the specific application. From simple awning control to the scientific detection of precipitation particles, the precipitation sensors from Thies Clima cover the entire range of applications and requirements for precipitation measurement.

3D Stereo Disdrometer
5.4120.xx.xxx3D Stereo Disdrometer
5.4120.xx.xxx
*The 3D Stereo Disdrometer measures all kinds of particles such as drizzle, rain, snow, hail and mixed precipitation. Furthermore, it is also able to identify non-hydrometeors. Due to its three-dimensional particle detection ability, it will show a reduced error under windy conditions.
The acquisition comprises the types of precipitation, intensity, and size-speed-distribution. All measuring values are available for the user via Ethernet, RS485 interface and files on SD card.
The camera module housing is equipped with an integrated heating. Instruments are equipped with the temperature sensor. In addition, the "optional measuring channels” will be able to connect relative humidity, wind speed, and wind direction sensors. These values will also be available via the RS485 interface and Ethernet connection.
For sites with rough climates, a version with "extended heating" is also available.
The instrument is especially suited for application in the fields of:
• Meteorology
• Climatology
• Regenerative energy, wind power plants
• Traffic engineering, aviation, and navigation
• Hydrology
