The portable filter for day hikes and emergency use. The ideal filter for travellers who only need to filter water occasionally and do not want to pack a heavy duty water filtration system.
The Katadyn ceramic with a pore size of 0,0002mm (0.2 micron) reliably holds back all pathogenic bacteria and protozoa such as: giardia, cryptosporidium, salmonella, amoebas, e-coli etc. With an easy single pumping mechanism water is turned immediately into safe drinking water, retaining its natural mineral content, without the need for boiling. The used ceramic element can easily be cleaned by brushing the surface with an abrasive pad. A measuring gauge is provided to check the minimum diameter of the ceramic element.
