KATADYN Expedition ESS Filter black

A group on the move needs a water source it can count on, and the Katadyn Expedition is just that. As indestructible as it gets, the Expedition is as easy to use as it is to pack along.
This group water filter provides high-performance filtration using Katadyn’s silver-impregnated ceramic to ensure the water is free of bacteria and protozoa. Plus, when your group is parched after a long day, you can push out an incredible 4 liters/minute of safe, fresh, regenerating water.

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.
Filters 4 litres a minute making it ideal for groups requiring large amounts of water
Indestructible material (metal) means extremely long life (up to 100,000 litres!) and very reliable
Cleanable ceramic filter element also filters cloudy water / can be used many times (not a disposable filter)
Few movable parts means simple maintenance
Measuring gauge supplied which indicates when the filter element should be changed.
