3M SGP-124B User Manual

ScaleGard™ Pro Softening Systems For Espresso Machines, Tea and Coffee Brewers

The SGP Series of 3M™ Water Filtration Products are designed to reduce hard scale build-up
on espresso machine boilers, improve beverage quality and maintain efficient brewing machine
operations.

High capacity ion exchange resin reduces calcium and magnesium to prevent hard scale. This
exchange also creates an environment in which existing hard scale cn actually be dissolved.

Premium activated carbon reduces chlorine taste and odor bitterness associated with poor water
quality.

The 1/4” NPT horizontal inlet and outlet ports are compatible with common equipment and tubing
installations.

The SQC — Sanitary Quick Change — encapsulated design reduces contamination during change­outs, are disposable and can be incinerated.

Single or dual cartridge systems allow for specific customization of filtration volume needs.

FDA CFR-21 and/or NSF compliant materials provide peace of mind that this product is suitable for
potable applications.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage:
To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage:

• Read and follow Use Instructions before installation and use of this system.

• Installation and use MUST comply with all state and local plumbing codes..

• Protect from freezing, remove filter cartridge when temperatures are expected to drop
below 40° F (4.4° C).

• Do not install on hot water supply lines. The maximum operating water temperture of this
filter system is 100°F (38°C).

• Do not install if water pressure exceeds 125 psi (862 kPa). If your water pressure exceeds
80 psi, you must install a pressure limiting valve. Contact a plumbing professional if you
are uncertain how to check your water pressure.

• Do not install where water hammer conditions may occur. If water hammer conditions
exist you must install a water hammer arrester. Contact a plumbing professional if you are

uncertain how to check for this condition.

• The disposable filter cartridge must be replaced every 6 months, at the rated
capacity or if a noticeable reduction in flow rate occurs.
