Sensor technology as the basis for intelligent monitoring

Sensors continuously measure relevant parameters in water, wastewater and gas, forming the basis for reliable monitoring.


Discover measurement parameters Understand integration

Water and wastewater processes
are becoming increasingly complex.

Fluctuating conditions, new dischargers and rising standards place high demands on monitoring. Sensors provide the necessary data to continuously record these processes and detect changes at an early stage. 

It is only through the combination of intelligent analysis and event-driven sampling that a complete picture of the actual situation emerges.

Measurement and analysis
in a single system

With NEMO, measured values are not only recorded but also directly analysed and classified.

Sensors continuously supply data, which is processed and analysed. Changes in the measurement trend are detected and can be specifically utilised to trigger actions. In this way, individual measurement values are combined to form a coherent overall picture, enabling a reliable assessment of conditions and events. Measurement values do not stand in isolation from one another. 

It is only through the analysis and linking of the data that correlations become apparent and events clearly identifiable.

Sensors working
together

Sensors provide the foundation –
the system makes the data usable.

Sensors continuously provide measurement data, which forms the basis for assessing conditions and trends. The data is processed and analysed. This enables critical events to be detected and targeted actions to be triggered, such as taking a sample or issuing an alarm.
