3M™ HF15-MS
The 3M™ HF15-MS Filter Cartridge (Part Number: 5626113) is a high-performance water filter cartridge designed specifically for commercial coffee and hot tea applications. It is part of 3M's High Flow Series (formerly Cuno) and is widely used to protect expensive brewing equipment from the damaging effects of hard water and sediment.
The 3M™ HF15-MS Filter is the primary replacement cartridge for the 3M™ BREW115-MS
The 3M™ HF15-MS Filter is compatible with the 3M™ VH3 Valve / Head Unit, both with and without pressure gauge variations.
Keep in mind that the 3M™ HF15-MS Filter will not remove bacteria and/or cysts from water.
Sanitary Quick Change (SQC) Design, hassle-free changes, the 3M™ HF15-MS Filter Cartridge seamlessly fits onto the VH3 Single Head and supports the uninterrupted operation, and keeps downtime minimal.
Applications:
- Commercial Coffee Machines: Protects the equipment from scale (kalk) build-up, as well as removing chlorine & bad odours in the water, helping to enhance the flavour of the coffee.
- Inline Hot Water Dispenser systems: Ideal for Inline Hot water Dispensing systems (such as Hydroboil & Hot Water Coolers), helping to inhibit scale (kalk) build-up inside the equipment.
Benefits:
- Carbon Block Technology: Removes chlorine taste, odor, and sediment while maintaining flow rate.
- Scale Inhibitor: Prevents limescale buildup, reducing equipment wear and maintenance costs.
- Great Taste Improvement: Removal of chlorine and organic molecules, leading to high-quality water and better-tasting coffee and/or tea product.
Key Features:
- Sanitary Quick Change (SQC): Allows the Filter Cartridge to be swapped out with ease. The Sealed Design of the Cartridge also means that there is no exposure of the internal Filter media, to possible external contamination during filter changes.
- Durable Construction: Built to last with a rugged design, ensuring long-term performance and reliability.

The 3M™ HF15-MS Cartridge Filters Down To: 5 Microns (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
