The Davis 7345.439 tipping spoon is an incremental improvement for both accuracy and durability over the previous generation Vantage Pro2 rain collector tipping spoon. The tipping spoon assembly is 100% backward compatible with all previous versions of Vantage Pro2 rain collectors.
Calibration Note:
The single tipping spoon theoretically does not need calibration. It relies upon magnetic attraction to determine the mass required to tip the spoon. The spoon has a calibration screw, but the change in attraction is non linear relative to each turn of the screw. As such each turn or partial turn of the screw may have a different effect on the attractive force.
