Frequently Asked Questions
The Bainbridge 150mm Rain Gauge is designed for high accuracy and consistency, making it suitable for professional use in agriculture, horticulture, and meteorological monitoring. Its raised, moulded graduations ensure long-term legibility and precise readings in both millimetres and inches.
The gauge measures rainfall up to 150 mm (or 6 inches) per event, making it ideal for regions with moderate to high rainfall. The transparent measuring cylinder allows quick visual checks, and its precision moulding ensures that readings are not distorted by dirt or water staining — a key benefit for long-term field installation.
For the most accurate results, install the rain gauge:
On a flat, open area away from trees, sheds, or other obstructions that can deflect rain.
At ground level or slightly elevated (using the multi-hole mounting plate) for stability and easy access.
With the top rim perfectly horizontal, using a spirit level if possible, to prevent measurement bias from angled rainfall.
The gauge’s multi-hole mounting plate allows simple attachment to posts, poles, or flat surfaces using screws or cable ties. Once installed, ensure the cylinder remains clean and unobstructed, especially after heavy weather or dust events.
Manufactured from UV-stabilised plastic, the Bainbridge rain gauge is built to withstand intense sunlight, temperature extremes, and moisture exposure common in Australian farming environments. Its rugged construction prevents yellowing, cracking, or distortion even after years of use in full sun.
Weighing just 310 grams, it is lightweight yet sturdy enough to remain stable in wind when properly mounted. The durable materials make it suitable for long-term outdoor use in paddocks, nurseries, and commercial growing facilities where accuracy and reliability are essential.
