Each cartridge is rated for 6,000 gallons while maintaining a consistent flow of up to 1.67 gpm, filtering dirt and particulate to 5 microns and reducing chlorine, taste, and odor so the machine keeps producing reliable, great tasting ice between changes. It serves machines producing up to 420 lb of ice per day; the larger K500 through K700 modulars pair with the AR-PRO10-K system and its K00534 cartridge instead. Replacement is a quarter turn out and a quarter turn in at the filter head, with 2.5 in. of clearance below the cartridge and a five minute flush before the system feeds the ice machine again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e5 Micron Particulate, Chlorine, Taste, and Odor Reduction\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDirt and particulate down to 5 microns come out of the feed water along with chlorine taste and odor, keeping ice clear and clean tasting while protecting the machine's water path. Feed water must stay at or below 100°F, and the system operates from 10 to 125 psi with a pressure reducing valve recommended when supply pressure exceeds 85 psi.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eScale Inhibition for Lines, Evaporator Plate, and Pump\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eScale inhibition reduces water-related ice machine problems from dirt and dissolved minerals, such as clogging of the distribution lines, evaporator plate, and pump. Filtration and scale protection ride in one cartridge, so a single swap renews both on the same schedule instead of splitting the job across separate treatment stages.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuarter-Turn Cartridge Change for Sanitary Swaps\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe manual shut-off on the system head makes changes easy and sanitary: twist the cartridge a quarter turn to the left and pull down to remove it, insert the new cartridge into the head, and twist a quarter turn to the right to lock. The cartridge stands 14.25 in. tall under the AR-PRO6-K head, and the complete system measures 16.81 in. tall by 3.48 in. wide by 4.13 in. deep with an integrated mounting bracket.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSix Month Replacement Cycle to Protect the Ice Machine\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eManitowoc recommends replacing cartridges every six months on a regular scheduled program, when capacity is reached, or whenever water pressure or flow to the equipment becomes inadequate, and always at least once per year. Keep the system out of freezing locations, and do not run water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Manitowoc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52748520128797,"sku":"K00533","price":72.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/4716\/2909\/files\/80974_K00533.jpg?v=1786369252","url":"https:\/\/thechefstore.com\/products\/manitowoc-k00533-6-000-gallon-arctic-pure-pro-replacement-water-filter-cartridge-for-ar-pro6-k-5-micron-for-koolaire-ice-machines","provider":"TheChefStore.Com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
