Plug and Play Compatibility – Easily Add this Sensor to HOBO Weather Stations

The Davis 0.2mm Rain Gauges features the AeroCone® design for better measurement accuracy in high-wind conditions, this 0.02 mm rain gauge sensor is plug-and-play compatible with all HOBO weather stations.

The smart sensor has a plug-in modular connector that allows it to be added easily to a HOBO station. All sensor parameters are stored inside the smart sensor, which automatically communicates configuration information to the logger without the need for any programming or extensive user setup.
