The OTT Parsivel² is a modern laser disdrometer for comprehensive measurement of all precipitation types. The Parsivel² captures both the size and speed of falling particles, classifying them into one of 32 separate size and velocity classes. The raw data are used to calculate the type, amount, intensity and kinetic energy of the precipitation, the visibility in the precipitation, and the equivalent radar reflectivity

• Parameters measured: Precipitation type, intensity, drop size distribution, radar reflectivity
• Measurement technology: Laser optical
• Product Highlights: Simultaneous measurement of 32 classes for particle sizes and velocities
• Interface: SDI-12 / RS-485, pulse
