The Pentair Everpure ESO7 is a three-stage blending cartridge for specialty coffee, espresso and iced tea applications. It supplies softened, buffered and filtered water to help control scale in beverage equipment and improve the water used for drinks.Ion exchange resin reduces hardness minerals including calcium and magnesium. A buffering stage helps prevent treated water from becoming too acidic, while high-capacity coconut carbon reduces chlorine, off tastes and odours. A controlled amount of carbon-filtered water bypasses the softening resin to retain the required initial hardness.Product features Softens, buffers and filters water in one cartridge Reduces hardness minerals that can build up in coffee and espresso equipment Reduces chlorine, off tastes and odours Rated for 2,300 litres at 150 ppm hardness Maximum service flow of 1.9 litres per minute Sanitary quick-change design keeps internal filter parts protected during replacement Designed for Everpure ESO systems, including the QC7I Single ESO7 configuration Installation and replacementInstall the cartridge vertically with the cartridge hanging down.
