FACTS
- The first portable water filter - today a classic.
- Made from top-quality, durable materials. This is why the Pocket is suitable for the toughest of conditions and is the first choice for extreme adventurers.
- The tried and tested ceramic depth filter removes bacteria, protozoa and other disease-causing agents.
- The principle:
- The micro-organisms cannot pass through the mini pores of the filter ceramic (0.2 microns) because of their size
(greater than 0.2 microns = 0.0002 mm). - Unlike disposable filters, the ceramic can be cleaned several times - even in the field.
- Improved, round pump handle for better ergonomics and an outlet hose which can be attached to water containers
- with a simple clip.
HOW IT WORKS:
1. Cushioned Base - For easy pumping
2. Top-quality, Durable Materials - unparalleled quality with a lifetime guarantee 3. Cleanable Silver Impregnated Ceramic Filter Element - not only for clear but also for very cloudy water - can be used hundreds of times (not a disposable filter) 4. Few Movable Parts - simple maintenance 5. Long Lasting - requires minimal maintenance 6. Improved Hand Ergonomics - even easier to pump 7. Measuring Gauge Supplied - indicates when the filter element should be changed 8. Output Barb - With output hose
