VEGA at IFAT 2026 Stable measured values for a resilient water industry

Extreme weather events, increasing demands on drinking water quality and ever more complex wastewater processes are putting operators under increasing pressure. A sustainable and resilient water and wastewater infrastructure therefore needs one thing above all else: reliable measurement data, even under difficult conditions.

From 4 to 8 May 2026, at IFAT in Munich, booth C1.239, VEGA will be showing how state-of-the-art level and pressure instrumentation helps to keep processes stable and efficient over the long term.
Interactive demonstrations at the exhibition stand illustrate the capabilities of the sensors under realistic operating conditions.

One focus is on wastewater treatment. Precise and stable measured values are indispensable in all process stages: from inflow via pumping stations to sedimentation and aeration to sludge dewatering and effluent control. Even in the presence of foam, vapours, buildup or changing media conditions, VEGA sensors deliver reliable, reproducible results – also in situations where other measuring methods reach their limits. This helps to prevent overflows, optimise energy consumption, reduce downtime and stabilise processes over long periods. 

VEGA is also presenting solutions for safe and efficient water management – from drinking water supply and flood defence to the monitoring of critical infrastructures. Precise level and pressure measurement technology ensures reliable operation of basins, reservoirs, pipeline networks and open channels. Intelligent level switches support automated alarms and control processes, thus increasing operational safety even under extreme environmental conditions and stresses.

Another topic VEGA is focusing on is digitalisation: Modern IIoT connectivity enables simple integration of sensors into existing control systems and ensures reliable monitoring of all critical process conditions during continuous operation. The acquired measurement data becomes decision-relevant information, enabling predictive maintenance and increasing plant availability. The combination of robust measurement technology and intelligent data utilisation makes water and wastewater treatment plants efficient, reliable and fit for the future.
