About AR-Filtertechnik
AR-Filtertechnik is a manufacturer of filter systems for industrial liquid filtration, founded in 2003 and based in Bretten, Baden-Württemberg. The company develops and manufactures bag filter housings, basket filters, filter bags and matching accessories entirely in Germany. The product range extends from the compact Mini system for flow rates up to 12 m³/h, via the Eco series (Eco-L, Eco-System, Eco-Modular up to 500 m³/h) and the Streamline system, to basket filter housings, Maxi systems and custom special housings. Manufacturing is carried out exclusively in high-quality stainless steel, especially 1.4301 and 1.4571; other materials such as 316L or Halar coating are available on request. The housings are designed according to the AD 2000 datasheets and, on request, inspected per the Pressure Equipment Directive; the exterior surfaces are glass-bead blasted. The filter systems are used, among other things, in the chemical industry, pharmaceuticals, automotive (VBH and KTL), electronics, food and beverage industry, as well as electroplating and water treatment.
