Parsivel Disdrometer 2022D - OTT HydroMet - Parsivel2 - 451462 (2022D)

Description

The OTT Parsivel is a laser disdrometer for measurements of all precipitation types. The Parsivel 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. Simultaneous measurement of 32 classes for particle sizes and velocities. SOP: temporal resolution 15 s, continuous measurements, due to stastical errors, one should use integrated spectra of at least 100 particles
PID: 21.11157/660aa6d2-6a26-40b6-825a-f122683686db
