The Model 260-2520 Forestry Rain Gauge includes a removable funnel, a calibrated measuring tube, a black plexiglass measuring stick graduated to 0.01" and 0.2 mm, and an overflow can. An optional support bracket is available.
The measuring tube holds exactly 0.5". Any excess overflows into the outer chamber so it can be measured after the quantity in the measuring tube has been recorded and removed. Total gauge capacity is 7".
