Instrumentation & Controls
Smart Controls Built by Filtration Experts
Roberts Filter Group brings more than
135 years of filtration experience to the world of automation and controls. Unlike generic integrators, we understand how filters are designed, operated, and optimized — and that knowledge informs every control panel, SCADA system, and HMI we build. Our instrumentation and controls solutions are engineered to integrate seamlessly into any water utility’s infrastructure, delivering reliability, compliance, and ease of operation.
