52202 Electrically Heated Rain and Snow Gage
3. Installation
The 260-953 Alter-Type Wind Screen’s siting information and
NOTE
installation procedure are provided in the 260-953 manual.
3.1 Siting
The 52202 should be mounted in a relatively level spot which is representative
of the surrounding area. The lip of the funnel should be horizontal and at least
30 cm. above the ground. It should be high enough to be above the average
snow depth. The ground surface around the rain gage should be natural
vegetation or gravel. It should not be paved.
The gage should be placed away from objects that obstruct the wind. The
distance should be two to four times the height of the obstruction.
3.2 Mounting
The 52202 precipitation gage uses a clamp to fasten onto the 3659 12-in.-long,
aluminum pipe or to a user-supplied 1-in. IPS pipe (see Figure 3-1). The 3659
pipe is shipped with the 52202 gage.
