Separating solids and liquids safely

When it comes to reliably separating solids and liquids, Waldner pressure filters offer a powerful, flexible, and reliable solution. Developed for demanding applications in the process industry, they combine robust construction with sophisticated functionality—tailored precisely to your requirements.

The aim of the filtration process is the safe separation of solids and liquids from a suspension. Depending on the product and process, either the solid (filter cake) or the liquid can be the desired end product.

The pressure filters are operated via a central pneumatic control system that does not require any electrical components. This makes the system particularly reliable and ideal for sensitive applications. On request, the design can also be made ATEX-compliant, ensuring safe operation even in potentially explosive areas.

Working together to find the best solution

Every filtration process is unique. That is why we support you from the initial request to the individual implementation – with technical expertise, many years of experience and the commitment to realise the best possible solution for your process.

Flexible sizes and filter areas

Our pressure filters are designed for a wide range of applications and enable consistently reproducible product quality—even under increased pressure and material requirements. We offer pressure filters in various designs and sizes:

  • Sizes from 50 to 300 litres
  • Filter areas from 0.12 to 0.50 m²

This allows both smaller batches and larger volumes to be processed efficiently and economically.

A key element of our pressure filters is the proven, form-fitting Waldner central closure. It enables:

  • Quick opening and closing in just a few seconds
  • Absolutely secure, pressure-resistant and leak-free sealing
  • Convenient transfer of your products

Alternatively, we also supply our pressure filters with standard closure variants, adapted to your technical and process specifications.

Customised designs for maximum process reliability

Depending on requirements, the filter base and top base can be designed in different ways:

  • Lowerable
  • Raised
  • Sideways swivelling

Various options are available for operation:

  • Manual lifting spindle
  • Pneumatic or hydraulic
  • Foldable with opening aid

We work with you to develop the right solution – precisely tailored to your product, process and operating concept.

Material, pressure ratings and connections as required

As with our container systems, the pressure and material requirements as well as the connection designs can be configured in an extremely variable manner. Whether special materials, individual connection geometries or process-specific pressure stages – our pressure filters are designed precisely according to your specifications.
