Water and wastewater management
Drinking water is a valuable foodstuff. Wastewater treatment is just as important a task as the monitoring of drinking water supplies.
VEGA supplies sensor technology for level, switching and pressure – perfectly adapted to the requirements of the water and wastewater industry.
Service-proven and precise measurement technology for wastewater treatment and water supply
VEGA is an experienced supplier of instrumentation for drinking water supply systems and sewage treatment plants. For decades already, VEGA has been supplying level and pressure sensors for containers, pipelines, filters and reservoirs all over the world. VEGA instrumentation provides accurate measurement data as a basis for automatic control of the various process steps. All sensors are state of the art, certified and easy to install and put into operation.

Fast delivery
Wide variety of mounting options
Simple setup and commissioning
Reliable measurement
Level measurement in the stormwater basin
If a stormwater overflow basin cannot hold the inflowing volume of water, part of it is discharged. Due to legal regulations, the containment and discharge events have to be measured and recorded accurately. A level sensor provides the required data for these events
Combined Sewer Overflow
Level measurement in the process water tank
Water for cleaning and rinsing is made available at various points in the sewage treatment plant via pressure pumps. To ensure a constant supply, the level in the process water tank is continuously measured.
Process water tank
Pressure monitoring in the pump room
The pressure in the pipeline is measured directly at the feed pump and displayed in the control system of the facility. Any potential malfunctions are quickly detected.
Pump room
Level measurement in the sewage lift station
Wastewater and the materials contained in it, are raised to a higher level by a screw pump, which allows them to flow down towards the sewage treatment plant over a natural gradient. Level measurement in the inlet shaft ensures economical operation of the pumps.
Sewage screw lifting station
River level measurement
Close monitoring of the river level is an important prerequisite for reliable extraction for drinking water production, as well as flood detection and warning.
River level measurement
Level measurement in the flocculant storage tank
Flocculant is an important chemical for wastewater treatment, and is stored in a special tank. Continuous level measurement from the outside, right through the tank roof, ensures a sufficient supply of flocculant.
Storage tank
Pressure monitoring in the drinking water pipeline
To transport the drinking water, pumping stations generate the required water pressure, which is constantly monitored by a pressure transmitter.
Drinking water pipeline
Water level measurement for control of the screen rake
The degree of buildup is determined by means of a differential measurement of the water levels in front of and behind the screen, which initiates the cleaning of the screen when necessary.

VEGABAR pressure sensors
It doesn’t matter if the sensor is used to measure pressure in pipelines or containers holding abrasive media, such as stones or sand, or in hygienic processes, where it has to meet strict cleanability requirements: VEGA offers pressure sensors with options for metallic or ceramic measuring cell. Both functional principles provide advantages and features that enable reliable measurement performance under different operating conditions.

Wireless adjustment
With Bluetooth, VEGA is looking far into the future. But already today, radio technology is making processes more and more flexible. Wireless communication provides better accessibility: in clean rooms, in harsh industrial environments and in hazardous areas. It allows parameterisation, display and diagnostics from a distance of up to 50 metres, thus saving time and avoiding dangers. Simply via VEGA Tools app – on any available smartphone or tablet.
IO-Link
VEGA uses IO-Link to make optimal use of all possibilities. With this manufacturer-independent, standard communication tool, sensors can be installed, parameterised and, if necessary, put back into operation faster and more cost-effectively. IO-Link is a digital interface that can automatically transfer parameters when an instrument is replaced.
