Filter by Schleicher & Schuell
We offer all former filters by Schleicher & Schuell. Our product range includes all filter media (e. g. filter papers or membrane filters) by Schleicher & Schuell. Schleicher & Schuell does not distribute any filter materials anymore, as it is now part of Whatman (GE Healthcare Group), but we offer equivalent products from Whatman as well as equivalent and cost-effective alternatives from other well-known manufacturers such as Sartorius, Hahnemühle, MerckMillipore and Pall.
Further information on Schleicher & Schuell brand filters can be found here.
Characteristics of Schleicher & Schuell filters
The filters from Hahnemühle have identical names to the filters from Schleicher & Schuell. You can find a brief overview in this table:
| Filters | Characteristics of the filter |
|---|---|
| Paper filter, round S&S 598/1 | Fast filtration, open fiber structure |
| Paper filter, folded S&S 589/2 | Rapid filtration, medium to open fiber structure, medium to wide pore |
| Paper filter sheets S&S 589/3 | Slow filtration, dense fiber structure |
| Paper filter, round S&S 595 | Rapid filtration, for retention of medium and fine particles |
| Paper filter, round S&S 595 1/2 | Rapid filtration, for retention of medium and fine particles |
| Paper filter, round S&S 597 | Rapid filtration, for retention of medium to small particles |
| Paper filter, round S&S 597 1/2 | Rapid filtration, for retention of medium to small particles |
Schleicher & Schuell Filter Papers
The separation of Schleicher & Schuell depth filters is based on mechanical retention or rather on the absorption of particles inside the filter maxtrix. The following table shows which filters are equivalent to the ones of Schleicher & Schuell.
