Product Description
3M™ HF20-S High Flow Series Ice Machine Replacement Cartridge (5615103)
The 3M™ HF20-S (Part #5615103) is a high-performance replacement cartridge designed to deliver "Recipe Quality Water™" for commercial ice applications. By effectively reducing cysts, sediment, and chlorine, this filter ensures that your ice is clear, hard, and free of off-flavors that can spoil premium beverages.
One of the most critical features of the HF20-S is its integrated scale inhibitor. This technology prevents calcium and magnesium from forming hard scale on ice machine evaporator plates, significantly reducing unscheduled service calls and extending the life of your equipment.
Commercial Ice Machine Applications
This cartridge is sized to meet the following daily ice production needs:
- Low Flow Cubers: Up to 750 lbs.
- High Flow Cubers: Up to 200 lbs.
- Flakers & Nugget Machines: Up to 1,200 lbs.
Key Features & Benefits
- Advanced Protection: Reduces cysts (Cryptosporidium and Giardia) and 0.5-micron sediment to protect internal components.
- Scale Inhibition: Built-in scale inhibitor reduces the precipitation of minerals as hard scale.
- Sanitary Design: Sanitary Quick Change (SQC) encapsulated design allows for fast, tool-free cartridge change-outs with no contact with the filter media.
- No Pre-Activation: Unlike many carbon filters, the HF20-S requires no pre-activation, allowing for immediate use after installation.
