We are delighted to announce the launch of TruMet PW100, our first infrared Optical Rain Gauge.
For decades, rainfall measurement has relied on mechanical tipping bucket gauges. While trusted, these systems are prone to clogging, mechanical drift (requiring frequent calibration for reliable data), and under-counting during high-intensity rainfall, leading to maintenance demands and data uncertainty when accuracy matters most.
TruMet PW100 is a solid-state, optical rainfall sensor.
A modern optical rain gauge built for accuracy and uptime
TruMet PW100 is a solid-state, optical rainfall sensor designed to replace the limitations of tipping buckets with a high-precision, low-maintenance alternative.
- Zero moving parts – No mechanical wear, no drift
- No clogging – no funnels, no collection chambers
- Accurate across the full rainfall spectrum – From drizzle to high-intensity events
- True maintenance savings – Operational cost reduction across regional networks
- Rapid deployment – Lightweight, compact, easy to install
- Consistent long-term performance – Designed for long life reliability
- Lower lifetime cost vs tipping buckets – Fewer callouts, fewer replacements
