METER ECRN-100 Low-Resolution Rain Gauge Installation Guide

ECRN-100 HIGH-RESOLUTION RAIN GAUGEINSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Preparation

Inspect and verify that ECRN-100 components are intact. The installation will require a 31.8- to 50.8-mm (1.25- to 2.00-in) diameter mounting pole. Before beginning installation, consider the surroundings and avoid obstructions. Many installations require weather stations to be mounted 2 m above ground, but this can be adjusted as needed. Set up and test the system (sensors and data loggers) in a lab or office. Ensure the data loggers are using up-to-date firmware and software. Check the following locations for firmware and software updates:

Installation

Use the ECRN-100 bracket to mount the rain gauge to the mounting pole at the desired height. Use a wrench to tighten the bolts, securing the rain gauge to the pole. Ensure that it is level (using the bubble level). Plug the sensor cable into the data logger. Use data logger software to apply appropriate settings to the sensors plugged into each data logger port. Gather and secure the cables to the mounting pole in one or more places to relieve strain on the connections.
