Balaji HydroMet manufactures a National Weather Service (NWS) style Standard Rain and Snow Gauge, Model [BHM-M-SRG]. The Balaji HydroMet gauge differs from an actual NWS gauge in some of the design features and materials used. The Model BHM-M-SRG is constructed entirely of aluminium with the exception of the measuring stick. The total capacity of the gauge is twenty inches of rainfall. Rain is collected by the gauge's eight-inch diameter funnel and is directed into the Measuring tube. The diameters of the funnel and measuring tube and the capacity of the tube have been set to give a maximum of two inches of rainfall before the tube overflows into the larger measuring can. The measuring can also act as the body of the rain gauge. Water collected by the inner collection tube is easily measured by using the measuring stick as a dip stick. The amount of rainfall collected is read directly from the measuring stick scale.

The amount of rainfall collected is read directly from the measuring stick scale. Whenever rainfall overflows into the measuring can, the reading is more involved. Water is poured from the measuring can into the smaller measuring tube and the reading is then made using the measuring stick. This process is repeated until all of the water inside the large tube has been measured. Care must be used to avoid any loss of the water during the pouring process.
