reliable pump protection

The Original ARV. Since 1950.

Already in 1950, Wilhelm Schroeder developed the world's first Automatic Recirculation Valve (models GD + SD) and thus not only became the inventor of a new kind of valve, but also laid the foundation for a completely new standard for the protection of pumps and systems. So we can proudly speak of The Original ARV, which stands as a reference for reliable pump protection today and in the future. And it is precisely this incomparable reliability that is our trademark and at the same time guarantees you reduced system and operating costs. 

From proven quality and performance to unrivaled service life and exceptional service. Benefit from The Original ARV. Made by Schroeder Valves.
