DEPressure in drinking water pipelines
Drinking water for all consumers
To transport drinking water to even the most remote reservoirs, pumping stations need to generate the necessary water pressure and are equipped with sensors that continuously monitor it. Since the pumping stations are often far away from the control centres, a maintenance-free, reliable measurement technology is an absolute must.
Pipe pressure monitoring with VEGABAR 52
The pressure transmitter VEGABAR 52 meets the high requirements of pressure monitoring of drinking water pipes with its ceramic CERTEC® measuring cell. Highly resistant to pressure surges and equipped with long-term stability, the sensor is the optimal solution for this measuring task. A long service life and extremely low maintenance costs are guaranteed.
Dry run protection with VEGASWING 61
The VEGASWING 61 level switch lends itself well for dry run protection on drinking water pumps. Its short, 40 mm long tuning fork works reliably, even in pipes with very small diameters. The high functional reliability of this vibrating level switch provides truly optimal protection for the pumps.
