This is a drop-in coffee machine water filter compatible with Hamilton Beach machines, built by Zanxis around a coconut-shell activated carbon and food-grade ion exchange resin core. It reduces sediment, rust and other large particles while treating the water that reaches the brew path, so it suits coffee machine owners, service operators and OEM buyers who want a verifiable replacement cartridge. Zanxis supplies it with CNAS-accredited lab reports, IQC/IPQC/OQC batch control and a sample sign-off route before volume production.
The table below lists the values Zanxis publishes for this cartridge. Treat it as the starting checklist for your own validation rather than a substitute for it.

Before you approve this cartridge for a machine platform, confirm the parameters that decide fit and performance in your specific application. The list below reflects what Zanxis can document today and what a buyer should verify against the target machine.
None of these values should be taken from a sibling product page. Where your requirement goes beyond the published data, Zanxis will say so rather than extrapolate.
Zanxis runs a sample sign-off sequence so that performance claims are checked on the parts you will actually receive. The steps below describe that sequence.
Keep the approved sample and its report together. They are the baseline for any later batch comparison.
The cartridge combines coconut-shell activated carbon with food-grade ion exchange resin. The carbon stage addresses taste and odour carried in the water, while the resin stage works on the hardness minerals that drive scale in coffee equipment. Fine micro-pore interception ahead of and around the media retains sediment, rust and other large particles, protecting the media bed and the machine downstream. The result is water that supports a clean cup and reduces the scale and blocking that shorten equipment life.
Use is deliberately narrow: cold water only, 2°C–38°C, and 20–120 psi. Within that envelope the cartridge suits automatic coffee machines, semi-automatic espresso machines and commercial machines that need water softening at the inlet. Zanxis also builds the same product family as an OEM water filter cartridge, so a buyer can take the standard compatible format or specify a variant.
Replacement is driven by the 250 L or 2–3 month figure, adjusted for the local water. Hard water or heavy use shortens the interval; soft water or light use can extend it, but the 2–3 month ceiling is a practical stop for hygiene and performance reasons. Record installation dates so the change-out is scheduled rather than reactive.
Zanxis operates its own laboratory, accredited by CNAS (China National Accreditation Service for Conformity Assessment), which issues test reports for filtration efficiency, dust holding capacity and resistance. Those reports are the documentary basis for the performance conversation on this cartridge.
Production quality is controlled through IQC, IPQC and OQC — incoming inspection, in-process inspection and outgoing inspection — so material, build and finished goods are each checked. The manufacturing system holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certification, and IATF 16949 was added in 2024. Production also follows the medical supplies GMP standard. Products meet the REACH and RoHS environmental requirements, and compliance documents can be supplied.
The plant covers 50,000 m², including 6 clean rooms totalling 20,000 m², where cartridges are produced in a controlled environment. Multiple automated lines support output of millions of pieces per month. Zanxis has more than 20 years of filtration research and manufacturing experience, has developed over 1,000 filtration solutions, and has exported to Europe, the United States, Japan and Korea for more than 20 years. The company is based in Zhongshan, Guangdong, China.
To move from specification to a signed-off sample, send Zanxis the following: the device or vehicle model the cartridge will serve; the size, connection drawing or dimensions; the airflow or water flow you expect; the operating conditions (inlet pressure, water temperature, water quality data); and the quantity you are planning for. With that information the team can confirm the configuration, issue the sample plan and assemble the matching CNAS test reports.
Use the contact page to start the request. Include drawings and water reports where you have them; they shorten the review and reduce the number of sample rounds.
Yes. Zanxis issues reports from its own CNAS-accredited laboratory covering filtration efficiency, dust holding capacity and resistance for the cartridge build. Reports are tied to the sample or batch they were produced for, so request them together with the sample you are evaluating.
The sequence runs from requirement definition through sample build, lab testing, fit trial and sign-off. Timing depends on whether the standard compatible format is used or a custom configuration is required, and on how quickly the fit trial is completed on your machine. Agree the plan in writing at the start so each step has an owner.
Confirm the machine model, connection geometry and installed dimensions, then test a physical sample in the machine. Zanxis builds samples on the same line as volume production, so the fit check reflects what you will receive. The published operating envelope is 20–120 psi and 2°C–38°C, cold water only.
The cartridge uses coconut-shell activated carbon and food-grade ion exchange resin with fine micro-pore interception for sediment, rust and other large particles. Service life is about 250 L or 2–3 months, depending on local water quality and usage frequency. Confirm the basis against your own water data before publishing a figure.
MOQ is agreed per configuration: the standard compatible cartridge, a customised OEM variant and a private-label programme can carry different minimums. State the quantity you plan for and the configuration you need, and Zanxis will confirm the MOQ in the quotation.
Lead time depends on configuration and quantity, and on whether new tooling or packaging is involved. Samples are produced first and signed off before volume release, so the schedule includes that validation step. Confirm the dates against your launch plan when the order is placed.
Replace at about 250 L or 2–3 months, whichever comes first. Hard water or heavy use shortens the interval; soft water or light use may extend it, but the 2–3 month ceiling remains a practical stop. Record the installation date so replacement is scheduled.
Yes. Zanxis supports OEM/ODM work covering dimensions, structure, media grade, housing and logo, and has developed over 1,000 filtration solutions. Products meet REACH and RoHS requirements and compliance documents can be provided. Send your specification through the contact page to start the review.
