The Holman Professional Rain Gauge Cylinder measures rainfall at your own property, in 1mm increments, up to a total of 250mm. It is a manual gauge in UV stabilised plastic, 120mm wide and 360mm high, with an outer cylinder that catches the overflow when the measuring tube fills. For anyone deciding whether to water this week, a real number from your own garden beats a forecast written for the whole city.

What it does

  • Reads to 1mm. Clear 1mm graduations on the measuring tube, so you record what actually fell rather than an estimate.
  • Handles heavy falls. Total capacity is 250mm, and the outer cylinder collects the excess once the inner tube is full so a storm is still measurable afterwards.
  • Large funnel. The wide funnel opening gives a bigger catchment area, which improves accuracy on light falls.
  • Built to sit outside. UV stabilised plastic, and stainless steel mounting screws and a rainfall chart are supplied with it.

How to use it

Mount it in the open, away from trees, eaves, fences and buildings. Anything overhead or upwind of the funnel intercepts rain and every reading you take afterwards will be low. Use the supplied stainless steel screws and check the gauge sits level.

Read and empty it daily, or straight after heavy rain, and record the figure on the rainfall chart. If the inner tube has filled, pour the water from the outer cylinder into the measuring tube and add the readings together for the true total. Rinse the tube and the outer cylinder out periodically so leaf litter and grit do not skew the level.

What it suits

Deciding when to water. Home gardens, where knowing that 12mm fell overnight tells you to skip the irrigation, and lawns and landscapes where natural water input drives the watering schedule.

Acreage and record keeping. Rural properties and farms that need a dependable reading during heavy rainfall, and anyone keeping a daily or seasonal rainfall record.

Not for. This is a manual instrument. There is no electronic logging, no display and no connection to anything, so a reading only exists if someone walks out and takes it. Delivered Australia wide,.
