Duplex strainer – switchable duplex filters for uninterrupted filtration

Our duplex strainers (duplex filters) enable the continuous filtration of liquids, viscous and gaseous media – without interrupting operation. Production takes place in close cooperation with Industriefabrik Schneider GmbH, which stands for the highest quality and flexible special solutions in filter construction. As a fittings factory, we not only supply the appropriate filters, but also the associated fittings – including modification, automation and accessories. This means you receive an optimally coordinated complete system from a single source.

Double duplex filter – Continuous filtration without system downtime


Double switchover filters enable uninterrupted operation by combining two filter chambers with a switchover function. While one chamber is being cleaned or serviced, the other remains in use – so the process is always protected and filtration is guaranteed at all times.

As a valve manufacturer, we supply double duplex filters as individual components or as a complete system – modified, automated or with matching valves on request.
