Katadyn TRK Drip Water Filter (Ceradyn)

The Katadyn TRK Drip Water Filter is a self-contained, stand alone gravity filter for base camps, emergencies, cabins and homes without clean running water. It does not remove chemicals when used with the ceramic element (Ceradyn). When used with the ceramic/carbon element (Gravidyn) unpleasant taste, odor, and hazardous chemicals are removed. Katadyn TRK Drip Water Filter

Drip Filter Purpose and Action Microfiltration of water which may be contaminated by infective microorganisms. Katadyn filters were originally designed to meet Swiss standards for removal of all bacteria from natural untreated water sources such as rivers, streams, lakes, ponds, springs, reservoirs and wells. They are also used on water to remove bacteria which may pass through or incubate and multiply on the wet charcoal filters used to remove chlorine or chemicals. GIARDIA and other cysts as well as coliform and the smallest known bacteria were shown to be completely removed in many tests. Tests also demonstrated zero bacteria in the filtered water after idle intervals, demonstrating that no bacteria incubate within the filter. Contamination of the ceramic filter element by harmful bacteria is prevented by bacteriostatic silver which is dispersed and fixed throughout the ceramic material by Katadyn's proprietary manufacturing process. This protection lasts up to the end of the life cycle of the element.

Parasites, algae, pollen, fungi, asbestos fibers, nuclear explosion debris, invisible dust particles as well as larger suspended particles and sediment are removed by Katadyn filtration. Therefore, water is clarified and often tastes better.

Microporous, silver incorporated CERAMIC with pore size of 0.2 Micron (0.0002mm). Retains suspended matter, all harmful bacteria and parasites such as cryptosporidium and giardia. Essential minerals remain in the water. The high performance ACTIVATED CARBON inside removes unpleasant taste and odor such as chlorine and hazardous chemicals. Outlet of filtered DRINKING WATER. MEASURING GAUGE to check the minimal diameter. The Ceramic can be cleaned by simply brushing under running water (all units come with a cleaning pad). Once used the GRAVIDYN has to be replaced after 6 months. Should the measuring gauge slide over the ceramic element the filter has to be replaced immediately regardless of the time used. DO NOT use any disinfectants. DO NOT steam, sterilize or boil the ceramic. REPLACE GRAVIDYN ACCORDING TO MEASURING GAUGE BUT AT LEAST AFTER 6 MONTHS!
