3M ICE140-S (5616203) Ice Machine Water Filter System, 0.2 Micron, 2.1 GPM, 25,000 Gal
3M ICE140-S (5616203) Ice Machine Water Filter System, 0.2 Micron, 2.1 GPM, 25,000 Gal
The 3M ICE140-S (part 5616203) is a single cartridge water filter system for larger commercial ice machines. It reduces cysts, bacteria (as tested by 3M), sediment, and chlorine taste and odor, and has a built-in scale inhibitor. It filters up to 25,000 gallons at up to 2.1 gpm.
At a Glance
- Reduces: cysts, bacteria (as tested by 3M), sediment, chlorine taste and odor, scale
- Filter rating: 0.2 micron (nominal)
- Capacity: 25,000 gallons
- Flow rate: up to 2.1 gpm
- Sized for: low flow cubers to 1,000 lb, high flow cubers to 600 lb, flakers to 1,800 lb
- Connections: 3/8" FNPT inlet and outlet
- Replacement cartridge: 3M HF40-S
Sized for Larger Ice Machines
The ICE140-S cartridge pairs a membrane with activated carbon (3M calls it IMPACT dual-zone media). 3M's own testing shows the membrane reduces up to 99.99% of common water-borne heterotrophic bacteria (HF40-S cartridge).
How Long the HF40-S Lasts in the ICE140-S
3M says to change the HF40-S every 12 months or at 25,000 gallons, whichever comes first. 25,000 gallons over 12 months works out to about 2,080 gallons a month, or roughly 68 gallons a day. If your ice machine uses more water than that, the HF40-S reaches its gallon rating early, so change it when the gauge or flow says so, not just on the calendar.
The ICE145-S is a different 3M system. It is rated 3.0 micron for higher turbidity water, uses the HF45-S cartridge, and does not carry the cyst or bacteria reduction claims. The ICE140-S is the 0.2 micron version with cyst and bacteria reduction.
Good For
- Ice machines up to low flow cubers to 1,000 lb, high flow cubers to 600 lb and flakers to 1,800 lb
- Kitchens using up to about 68 gallons of ice machine water a day over a 12-month cartridge life
- Most standard water, where you want 0.2 micron filtration with cyst and bacteria reduction (3M tested)
Features
- The HF40-S cartridge reduces sediment and chlorine taste and odor, which helps protect the ice machine and keep ice clear
- Membrane plus activated carbon cartridge (IMPACT dual-zone media)
- Reduces up to 99.99% of common water-borne heterotrophic bacteria by membrane filtration, as tested by 3M Purification (HF40-S cartridge)
- HF40-S cartridge is certified by NSF to Standard 53 for cyst reduction
- Built-in bacteria inhibitor to reduce fouling of the media (HF40-S cartridge)
- Scale inhibitor in the HF40-S reduces lime scale on the evaporator plates (tested by 3M Purification)
- The valve-in-head ICE140-S head shuts off and vents water during cartridge changes
- The HF40-S is a Sanitary Quick Change cartridge: a 1/4 turn takes it off, with no contact with the media
- Pressure gauge on the head
- Built-in mounting bracket
- ICE140-S materials are NSF Standard 42 and/or FDA CFR-21 compliant
- No pre-activation: the HF40-S goes in ready to use

Installation and Care
- Connect the ICE140-S to cold water only, 100°F max.
- The ICE140-S is rated to 125 psi. Over 80 psi, put a pressure limiting valve ahead of it.
- Add a water hammer arrester ahead of the ICE140-S if water hammer can happen.
- Protect the ICE140-S from freezing, and pull the HF40-S if the space may drop below 40°F.
- Replace the cartridge every 12 months, at 25,000 gallons, or if the flow drops.
- Do not run the ICE140-S on water that is microbiologically unsafe (not safe to drink) or of unknown quality without disinfection.
- Install the ICE140-S to state and local plumbing codes.
3M ICE140-S FAQ

It reduces cysts, bacteria (as tested by 3M), sediment, and chlorine taste and odor, and its built-in scale inhibitor reduces scale.
What size ice machine is the ICE140-S for?
Low flow cubers up to 1,000 lb, high flow cubers up to 600 lb, and flakers up to 1,800 lb.
What is the replacement cartridge for the ICE140-S?
The 3M HF40-S (part 5613305).
How often do I change the ICE140-S cartridge?
Every 12 months, at 25,000 gallons, or when the flow rate drops.
What size are the ICE140-S connections?
3/8" FNPT inlet and outlet.
What is the ICE140-S flow rate?
Up to 2.1 gpm.
How is the ICE140-S different from the ICE120-S?
The ICE140-S filters to 0.2 micron (vs 0.5), adds bacteria reduction, handles up to 2.1 gpm (vs 1.5) and lasts up to 25,000 gallons (vs 9,000). It is sized for larger ice machines.
How many gallons a day can the ICE140-S handle?
About 68 gallons a day if you want the HF40-S to last the full 12 months. Its rating is 25,000 gallons, so heavier use means changing it sooner.
Is the ICE140-S the same as the ICE145-S?
The ICE145-S is a different 3M system. It is rated 3.0 micron for higher turbidity water, uses the HF45-S cartridge, and does not carry the cyst or bacteria reduction claims. The ICE140-S is the 0.2 micron version with cyst and bacteria reduction.
What is the 3M part number for the ICE140-S?
5616203.
What is the warranty?
3M covers the ICE140-S for 5 years and the HF40-S cartridge for 1 year.
