VEGA Controls Ltd is proud to announce a UK market first in radar level measurement. Our compact VEGAPULS radar sensors are now certified with three of the most critical approvals for water industry instrumentation — delivering unmatched versatility, safety, and compliance in a single, robust product range.

 

Triple Certification – Trusted Performance, Proven Compliance

The following VEGAPULS radar sensor models are now approved for:

  • MCERTS Class 1
    VEGAPULS C21, C22, 21, and 31
    Recognised for their accuracy and reliability in environmental monitoring applications, these sensors meet the strict performance standards set by the Environment Agency.

  • WRAS (Water Regulations Advisory Scheme)
    VEGAPULS C21, C22, C23, 21, and 31
    WRAS approval confirms our sensors are safe for use in potable water applications, meeting stringent UK regulations.

As announced in our earlier WRAS press release, “We’ve shown our MCERTS credentials on wastewater and environmental monitoring, now it’s time to show how well our devices scrub up with WRAS approval for clean water applications,” said Doug Anderson, Managing Director.

  • Ex ia ATEX (Intrinsically Safe)
    VEGAPULS C21, C22, C23, 21, and 31
    These devices are also approved for use in hazardous areas, providing peace of mind in ATEX-rated environments like pumping stations and treatment works.

 

A First in the Field

This combination of WRAS, MCERTS, and Ex ia ATEX across a wide radar level range is unique in the UK market. Water companies and system integrators can now deploy a single technology platform with the assurance of full compliance across clean water, wastewater, and hazardous applications.

With their compact design, maintenance-free operation, and cutting-edge 80 GHz radar technology, these sensors offer a future-ready measurement solution that meets the highest expectations for performance and safety.
