3M™ AP2-C405-SG
The 3M™ AP2-C405-SG (Part Number: 7000051324), elevates your drinking water experience by offering you clean, fresh filtered water as an alternative to plastic-bottled water. Explore our multi-stage filtration solutions suitable for water coolers, water dispensers, and single carbonator dispensers, with variants available for hot water applications. The 3M™ AP2-C405-SG is designed to filter out: Chlorine, Cysts (Giardia & Cryptosporidium), Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM), Heavy Metals, Lead, Limescale, Microplastics, Pathogenic Bacteria, Pesticides & Herbicides, Polyfluoroalkyls (PFAs), Sediment, Turbidity, Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)
3M™ AP2-C405-SG filters the water down to 0.5 microns. This helps to capture submicron particles and sediment, as well as capturing some organisms, bacteria, and cysts present in the water.
The built-in Scale Inhibitor helps prevent limescale buildup, which is essential for maintaining optimal performance in coffee machines, ice makers, and other commercial beverage systems.
Sanitary Quick Change (SQC) Design, hassle-free changes, the 3M™ AP2-C405-SG Cartridge seamlessly fits onto the 3M™ AP2 Water Filter Valve Head and supports the uninterrupted operation, keeping downtime minimal.
The 3M™ AP2-C405-SG acts as a compatible upgrade filter to the AP2-C401-G, AP2-C401-SG, & AP2-C405-G Filters.
Applications:
The 3M™ AP2-C405-SG filter cartridge is ideal for use in various food and drink service applications, including:
- Plumbed-In Water Coolers and Water Dispensers: Enhance water quality to improve the safety and quality of the water produced.
- Drinking Water Systems: Ensures clean, refreshing water for direct consumption.
- Hot Water Boilers: Helps to inhibit scale formation inside of inline small-scale boiler / hot water dispensers.
Key Features:
- Sanitary Quick Change (SQC) Design: The encapsulated cartridge allows for fast and easy replacements without the need for special tools or filter wrenches, minimizing downtime and simplifying maintenance.
- Certifications: Meets NSF/ANSI standards for chlorine taste and odor reduction, ensuring compliance with industry water quality and safety requirements.
- 0.5 Micron Filteration: Works to capture bacteria and cysts from water.
- Scale Inhibitor: Prevents limescale buildup, protecting equipment and reducing maintenance costs.
Benefits:
- Improved Beverage Quality: Reduces unwanted particulates and off-tastes caused by chlorine, ensuring that beverages taste as intended.
- Equipment Protection: Helps prevent scale buildup and sediment accumulation, extending the operational life of water-using equipment.
- Cost-Effective Maintenance: The SQC design allows for quick and hygienic cartridge replacements, reducing maintenance time and labor costs.
Sediment Filtration levels:
The 3M™ AP2-C405-SG Cartridge Filters Down To: 0.5 Microns (0.5um)
To put this in perspective, look at the sizes of the following objects:
- Eye of a needle ……………………………………….1230 micron
- Dot (.)…………………………………………………………615 micron
- Table salt……………………………………………………100 micron
- Human Hair (average diameter)………………….60 micron
- White Blood Cell…………………………………………..25 micron
- Red Blood Cell………………………………………………..8 micron
- Spider Web………………………………………………...2 - 3 micron
- Bacteria (harmful)……………………………………0.3 - 2 micron
With a nominal sediment filter, 60 – 98% of all the particles larger than the specified filter micron number are removed.
