The GWU Group of Germany has recently added the Rainger rainfall logger to its lineup of high quality products for flow and meteorological instrumentation.  The Rainger logger is custom mounted by GWU into a high precision Young  tipping bucket collector.  The Rainger firmware and software were modified by Savannah Environmental to accept the higher precision (.1mm) required by the GWU group and their valued customers.   > view a picture of the configuration  Savannah Environmental and the GWU Group work closely together, ensuring that products and services meet the varying needs of the European market.  Some examples include:

  • Language translations in software
  • Numerical conventions
  • Date/time formatting
  • Varying pipe geometries for flow monitoring
