Inside Filtration – The Official FAUDI Newsletter<br />

FAUDI for Continental, Eastern Europe<br />

Clean performance<br />

for a clean emulsion<br />

Eastern Europe is growing very rapidly as an automotive<br />

region. Continental AG opened a new production facility<br />

in Zvolen in the Slovak Republic in 2005 in order to keep<br />

pace with this development and to retain its international<br />

competitive edge. It is intending to expand the new factory<br />

in Zloven to become one of the largest facilities for the<br />

manufacturing and assembling of brake callipers. FAUDI<br />

equipment is increasingly being used in the location‘s<br />

16,000 square metre production area, e.g. a coolant cleaning<br />

and supply plant with sediment tank and backflush filters.<br />

This supplies 11 cutting machines with a total capacity of<br />

8,000 l/min. The required filtration grade is 60 μm. In order<br />

to achieve this, the feed emulsion is first pre-cleaned in a<br />

sediment tank and subsequently pumped through three selfcleaning<br />

backflush filters. These are equipped with split-pipe<br />

filter elements made from stainless steel and are backflushed<br />

by the pressure in the system using clean emulsion. The<br />

backflush liquid is then cleaned once more with a vacuum<br />

filter. This combination of various filter systems ensures safe<br />

supplies of clean emulsion to the machining equipment.<br />

Continental AG has great expectations of its location in Zvolen<br />

and puts its complete trust in products made by FAUDI.
