Aries (AF-20-3302) 20"x2.5" (4 oz) Phosphate-GAC Carbon Filter
Aries AF-20-3302 20"x2.5" Phosphate-GAC Carbon Filter
Dual-action filtration and scale prevention for equipment protection and water quality
Two Technologies in One Cartridge
Phosphate Scale Prevention
Four ounces of food-grade phosphate crystals sequester calcium and magnesium, preventing lime scale buildup on pipes, heating elements, and glass surfaces
Granular Activated Carbon
GAC media removes chlorine, taste, and odor from municipal water supplies while phosphate handles mineral treatment downstream
Corrosion Inhibition
Phosphate forms a protective microscopic coating on metal surfaces, reducing corrosion and extending equipment lifespan in aggressive water conditions
Equipment Protection
Engineered for ice machines, coffee equipment, water heaters, and food service applications where both filtration and scale control are required
FDA-Grade Construction
Manufactured entirely with FDA-compliant materials. Phosphate tested and listed under NSF Standard 61 for drinking water system components
Filter Details
| Model Number | AF-20-3302 |
| Dimensions | 20" x 2.5" |
| Phosphate Content | 4 oz food-grade crystals |
| Carbon Media | Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) |
| Housing Compatibility | Standard 20" x 2.5" cartridge housings |
| Certifications | NSF 61 (phosphate), FDA-grade materials |
Recommended Applications
The Aries AF-20-3302 fits all standard 20-inch filter housings with 2.5-inch diameter capacity. Commonly used in whole-house systems, well water treatment, ice machines, commercial coffee and vending equipment, food service water lines, water heaters, air conditioning systems, reverse osmosis pre-filtration, and appliance protection applications where both chlorine removal and scale prevention are beneficial.
Replacement Schedule
Residential Use
Replace cartridge every 3 to 6 months depending on water hardness and chlorine levels. Higher hardness depletes phosphate faster
Commercial Equipment
Ice machines, coffee equipment, and high-volume applications require more frequent replacement due to increased throughput
Scale Reappearance
If you notice scale beginning to form on glassware or equipment, phosphate crystals are depleted and cartridge should be replaced immediately
Dual Treatment
One cartridge handles both filtration and mineral conditioning
Equipment Savings
Prevents scale damage and corrosion that cause costly repairs
Standard Sizing
Drop-in replacement for any 20x2.5 filter housing
Cleaner Output
Reduces spotting on ice, glassware, and stainless surfaces
