Installation of TR-525 series rain gauge with the MB-525
pole mounting base consists of mounting a 1.25” pipe with a
NPT thread vertically into the ground. Typical installations
suggest the top of the rain gauge be 36” (91.4 cm) above the
ground. Below is a chart that gives the height of each TR-525
rain gauge (Note: the MB-525 adds approximately 1” (2.54 cm)
to the overall height.) and the suggest height of the pipe above
ground. All distances are approximate.
