Fridge Water Filter RFID Cross-Reference

Samsung HAF-QIN (DA97-17376B vs DA97-08006C) Locking Tab Comparison & Non-Leaking Alternatives

Samsung HAF-QIN/EXP (DA97-17376B, also DA97-08006C) is the 2019+ internal upper-left filter for RF28/RF23/RF22 French-door fridges. It replaced HAF-CIN; the head geometry differs (tabs), so HAF-CIN (DA29-00020B) will NOT lock into a HAF-QIN housing. No RFID chip.

⚠ CRITICAL COMPATIBILITY RULE: Match the part — DA97-17376B/HAF-QIN only. Swift Green SGF-HAFQIN Rx (Made in USA) is a verified cross-reference; Waterdrop lists its Samsung range in the linked collection.
Verified Reddit Fit Complaint: r/Appliances — 'Bought DA97-08006A instead of DA97-17376B because the boxes look identical'
