Product overview
The Elkay 51300c water filter 51300c is purpose-built for Elkay and Halsey Taylor drinking fountains fitted with the EWF3000 WaterSentry Plus system. Each sealed cartridge snaps straight into the filter head and immediately restores full water flow and performance, giving you confidence that every sip meets and exceeds Australian drinking-water guidelines.
Filtration performance
The Elkay water filter 51300c delivers highly efficient removal of lead, chlorine and particulates. A spun-bond polypropylene pre-filter in the 51300c Elkay filter design traps coarse debris to protect the carbon block and extend filter life.
- Removes ≥99 % of lead, a heavy metal linked to developmental issues in children
- Cuts class 1 particulates such as dirt, rust and micro-sediment
- Eliminates chlorine taste and odour, delivering noticeably fresher water
- Reduces discolouration caused by organic compounds
The media is protected by a spun-bond polypropylene pre-filter that stops coarse debris before it can clog the carbon block.
Easy installation
A quarter-turn quick-disconnect means cartridge changes take under two minutes with no tools. An automatic shut-off valve isolates the supply the moment the old filter is twisted out, so there is zero water mess and no need to hunt for the isolation stopcock.
Certified for quality
The Elkay 51300c filter has undergone and passed independent testing and is certified to NSF/ANSI 42 and 53 for lead reduction, particulate class 1 removal and chlorine, taste and odour reduction.
Compliance note: This product also meets AS/NZS 3497 requirements for devices connected to the potable water network, giving facility managers full WaterMark peace of mind.
Replacement schedule
For consistent protection, replace the cartridge every 3,000 gal (11,350 L) or 12 months, whichever comes first. Heavy-use sites should log the installation date on the filter’s label so maintenance teams can swap it on time.
Compatibility
The cartridge is identical to the Halsey Taylor 55898C model, so you can keep one SKU on the shelf for both brands. It also replaces earlier WaterSentry Plus 3000-series cartridges without adaptors.
