Katadyn Hiker Water Filter
The lightweight, reliable and easy-to-use design makes the Katadyn Hiker water filter a great choice for backpacking and trekking. Filter physically removes particles, protozoa, and bacteria down to 0.3 microns in size, including giardia, salmonella, cryptosporidia and others. Glass-fiber element is pleated for increased surface area to handle silt and muddy water. Activated-carbon core adsorbs chemicals and pesticides to improve taste of water. Aproximately 48 strokes per min. provide 1 liter of clean drinking water. Pre-filter at hose inlet filters to 150 microns, removing larger contaminants before they reach the main filter to increase its life span. Included adapter allows the filter output hose to attach to the quick-connect fitting built into some hydration reservoirs (reservoir not included). Katadyn Hiker water filter includes a carry sack and bottle adapter that fits most water bottles.
