DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF A COMPUTER CONTROLLED AUTOMATIC SEQUENTIAL RAIN SAMPLER

The preliminary goal of this study was to design, construct and apply a new automatic sequential precipitation sampling instrument. The proposed sequential sub-event sampler was designed in two sections: mechanical and electronical sections. The mechanical part includes a series of 100 mL sampling bottles on it, and a metallic body. The electronic part is composed of digital and analog sensors, various electronic material and a computer as the main controller of the system.
