Description
Filter paper 520b is a large-format technical creped folded filter for very fast filtration of substantial liquid volumes. Grade 520b offers a basis weight of 155 g/m² and a diameter of 600 mm, combining high flow capacity with a creped surface that expands effective area and supports continued throughput under heavier solids loads. The open technical structure is aimed at coarse-to-medium clarification and bulk sample or process filtration rather than the finest analytical retention. Pre-folded filters are supplied in packs of 20 pieces from manufacturer Hahnemühle, sized for large funnels and industrial or pilot-scale laboratory setups. Typical applications include process monitoring, preparatory filtration of larger batches, and general technical separation steps where speed and capacity are decisive. The paper is non-sterile and intended for standard technical workflows. Consistent grammage and creping help operators achieve repeatable handling when processing successive large-volume filtrations.

Questions about Filter paper 520b, technical ,very fast, 155 g/sqm, creped ,Folded filter, 600 m
What is this article?
Filter paper 520b, technical ,very fast, 155 g/sqm, creped ,Folded filter, 600 m is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Hahnemühle for laboratory use. It sits in Filter paper, inside Filtration, in Lab consumables.
Filter paper is a cellulose sheet of a stated retention and speed. Qualitative paper clarifies. Quantitative, ashless paper is for a precipitate that will be weighed or ashed, because the paper itself leaves almost no ash. The diameter has to match the funnel.
Filtration holds back what is larger than the pores and lets the rest through. Paper is the ordinary laboratory filter. A membrane has a stated pore size and a polymer that must survive the solvent. A syringe filter is that membrane in a housing on a syringe. Glass fibre takes a higher dirt load. Ultrafiltration holds back macromolecules and passes salts. The pore size, the chemical compatibility and the volume are the three choices. Laboratory apparatus around filtration is indexed under ISO laboratory apparatus.
