TruMet PW100 is an ultra-reliable, low maintenance alternative to traditional tipping bucket rain gauges. It delivers accurate rainfall data as a standalone unit or when combined with our MetConnect or MaxiMet weather station ranges, including the fully integrated MaxiMet GMX603.
With no moving parts, TruMet PW100 is a plugand-play solution designed to replicate the output of a conventional tipping bucket, without the burden of maintenance or recalibration.
Real World Applications
Whether you manage national networks, critical infrastructure, renewables, flood modelling, or smart-city systems, the PW100 delivers what older gauges can’t – accuracy in the extremes, reliability without moving parts, and the freedom from continuous maintenance cycles.
- Meteorological agencies High-resolution rainfall data at national scale without the operational burden
- Renewable energy operators Weather-dependent asset protection with reliable precipitation input
- Smart city programs Low-maintenance rainfall nodes for dense urban networks
- Flood forecasting & emergencies response teams Sharper data for faster, more accurate modelling in extreme events
- Transport & aviation authorities Track sudden rainfall changes affecting safety and operations
- Universities & research institutes Precision data for climate studies, hydrology, and environmental modelling
Features
- High quality, accurate, solid-state liquid precipitation sensor
- Minimal maintenance requirement
- Extensively tested and designed to deliver accuracy with high correlation to tipping bucket measurement
- High quality measurement data due to unique sensor technology and extensive design testing and verification
- Less susceptible to debris blockage and requiring less maintenance than a tipping bucket
- Minimal set-up required and easily integrates with existing systems
