The 7-in-1 outdoor sensor array (WS90) which no longer uses the traditional tipping bucket rain gauge, but a haptic sensor which measures rainfall. The revised rainfall sensor is slightly sloped to improve accuracy and prevent rain pooling. The outdoor sensor also measures temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind direction, rainfall, UV level and light intensity. It requires mounting on the top of a 1 inch pole to ensure accurate readings and should be used with a compatible GW series gateway or display console.
