EMPURA 4.5" Water Filter Cartridge | Replacement Filtration System for Restaurants Beverage | 1,400 lbs Daily Production, 2 GPM 0.5 Microns, 4.25"W x 3"D x 21"H, NSF (Compatible: Ice Maker Machine)

The EMPURA 4.5" Water Filter Cartridge is designed to provide reliable water filtration for commercial beverage systems, ice makers, and coffee brewers. Built to handle high demand, this system supports up to 1,400 pounds of daily ice production, making it suitable for restaurants, hotels, cafés, catering services, and other busy foodservice operations. With a 2 GPM flow rate, the filter delivers steady water output while maintaining quality performance. This filtration cartridge reduces sediment down to 0.5 microns, which helps improve clarity and taste while minimizing chlorine-related odor that can affect beverages and ice. The inclusion of a scale inhibitor provides additional protection for valuable equipment by reducing the buildup of minerals that cause blockages and long-term wear. This feature helps extend the life of commercial ice machines, coffee brewers, and beverage dispensers by keeping them in better operating condition. The cartridge is designed with a Fast-Fit connection system, allowing for quick installation and replacement without the need for complicated tools or extended downtime. It also features a pressure line gauge for monitoring system performance and a full port shut-off valve for added convenience during maintenance. Measuring 4.25"W x 3"D x 21"H, the cartridge fits comfortably in commercial kitchen environments where space may be limited, yet reliable water filtration is essential. NSF certification confirms that the cartridge meets foodservice safety and sanitation standards, giving operators confidence in its performance. Whether installed in a restaurant, café, bar, hotel, or institutional kitchen, the EMPURA 4.5" Water Filter Cartridge provides consistent filtration for demanding operations that depend on high-quality water for ice production and beverage preparation.

• HIGH PERFORMANCE WATER FILTRATION: Engineered to support heavy-duty beverage and ice service environments with a production capacity of up to 1,400 lbs per day. Designed for high-demand settings such as restaurants, cafes, and concession stands, this filtration system ensures that ice machines and coffee brewers perform at consistent levels. With a 0.5 micron rating, the cartridge effectively removes fine sediment, chlorine, and other impurities that can compromise water quality.
• BUILT-IN SCALE INHIBITOR: Equipped with an integrated scale inhibitor, the EMPURA 4.5" Water Filter Cartridge helps prevent the buildup of scale deposits caused by hard water minerals. Scale can reduce the efficiency of ice makers, coffee brewers, and other beverage equipment, leading to downtime and costly maintenance. By controlling mineral scale, this cartridge contributes to longer equipment lifespan, improved energy efficiency, and consistent daily performance.
• HIGH FLOW RATE: With a flow rate of 2 gallons per minute, the EMPURA cartridge is designed to keep pace with busy commercial operations. The consistent water flow ensures that ice machines, coffee brewers, and other beverage systems receive a steady supply of filtered water even during peak demand hours. The performance level supports both small and large foodservice operations, accommodating high-volume beverage output without compromising filtration quality.
• BUILT-IN PRESSURE GAUGE AND FULL PORT SHUT-OFF VALVE: This filtration system is equipped with a pressure line gauge and a full port shut-off valve. The pressure gauge allows operators to track system performance, ensuring the filter is operating within optimal ranges. The shut-off valve provides control over water flow during filter replacement or maintenance, reducing the risk of leaks and simplifying servicing procedures.
• EASY INSTALLATION WITH FAST-FIT DESIGN: Design that simplifies installation and replacement. Foodservice operators benefit from quick filter changes that do not require specialized tools or extensive downtime, keeping operations running smoothly. The cartridge is designed to connect seamlessly with standard fittings, allowing for fast swaps during routine maintenance cycles.
