Rain Gauge
Pluvio with Pulse Output

We reserve the right to make technical improvements!

Description Status Output
The status signal consists of 1 to 5 symmetric pulses and is given per minute after completion of the
measurement. A pulse takes 50 ms. For the output of the control pulses per minute the existing
second output of 0.1 mm (type 250 mm) or 1.0 mm (type 1000 mm) is used. Here the "contact
output 0.1 mm (1.0 mm)” and also the "current source output 0.1 mm (1.0 mm)” can be used.
Number of pulses Meaning of the status pulses
1 proper function
2 proper function and content of vessel 50%
3 proper function and content of vessel 80%
4 proper function and housing open
Example of connection 1:
Current source 0.01 mm; f = 30 Hz
Example of connection 2:
Contact assignment 0.01 mm;f=30Hz
Example:
Output of precipitation
Type 250 mm; 0.01 mm; 30 Hz
Type 1000 mm; 0.1 mm; 10 Hz
