DIN EN 13798:2010-11 EN 13798:2010 (E) 4 Introduction A raingauge pit consists of a pit, normally square in plan and of suitable depth, and a grating, normall

17、y of galvanised sheet steel or plastic. Such a pit can contain any suitable type of raingauge. The pit gauge may be used in its own right for improved measurement of rainfall, for wind effects evaluation or for comparison purposes against other reference raingauges. DIN EN 13798:2010-11 EN 13798:201

18、0 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the design of a reference raingauge pit. The reference raingauge pit is designed for the liquid precipitation only. The specified details of the pit and the grating, are purposely kept to a minimum in order to allow each raingauge operator latitude in

19、 their construction and to suit local conditions. 2 Design and construction of the reference raingauge pit Figures 1 to 6 show the design of the pit, including the required dimensions of the pit and the grating, and the method of installation of the raingauge. The specified dimensions are not critic

20、al, but shall be used whenever possible. Variations are acceptable within the indicated tolerances. The pit shall preferably be sited on level ground to avoid possible surface runoff into it during prolonged heavy rain. However, in mountainous areas, this may not be possible or desirable and adequat

21、e drainage shall be provided in such cases. The sides of the pit shall be formed of brick, concrete, corrugated iron, plastic, preserved wood or other suitable material. They shall be supported to prevent collapse. Supports shall be provided around the edges, or at the corners of the pit, on which t

22、o rest the grating. The grating shall either be strong enough to walk on, or be made in two sections to allow half to be lifted, to give access to the raingauge. The base of the pit shall be adapted and deep enough to allow the correct installation of the raingauge and the levelling. The base of the

23、 pit shall also allow water to drain. For drainage an overlay of gravel or other suitable material may be used but for high precipitation rate places a suitable pumping system may be used. It may be located in a central recess (extra depth). Plastic sheeting laid over bare soil shall not be used if

24、it does not permit water to drain quickly away. Weed growth shall be prevented either by weeding or by periodic application of weed killer. The surrounding grass should be maintained well and kept without weed. The maximum height of the grass should not exceed 2 cm. The gratings shall be kept free o

25、f debris, (cut) grass and leaves. The pit shall be at least 300 mm deep. 3 Design and construction of the grating The grating shall be constructed from material sufficiently strong to maintain its shape without distortion. The strips of the grating shall be not more than 5 mm thick, to prevent splas

26、hing from their top surfaces. The top of the grating shall equalize the level of the soil or grass. Grating distance shall be (125 5) mm. NOTE 1 Thickness will depend partly, however, on the material used, such that in the case of galvanised steel, 2 mm will probably be sufficient. NOTE 2 The gratin

27、g should preferably be of galvanised sheet steel, but can be of plastic or wood or other suitable material. Aluminium could be a good compromise. NOTE 3 Rounding off the top surface of the grating will decrease splashing. 4 Installation of raingauges The orifice of the raingauge shall be level with

28、the top of the grating and centred. DIN EN 13798:2010-11 EN 13798:2010 (E) 6 To prevent in splash from the grating, the side of the central square space of the grating shall be approximately between 200 mm and 300 mm larger than the diameter of the raingauge collector. In order to match this require

29、ment, the square space of the grating shall be adapted according to the raingauge collectors diameter.
