KATADYN Portable Water Filter Combi Filter Cartridge Combi Ceramic Replacement Element

• Patented 0.2 micron ceramic filter element: Utilizes silver-impregnated ceramic technology to thoroughly filter out 99.9999% of bacteria and 99.9% of protozoa. The embedded silver ions actively inhibit bacterial growth within the filter element.
• 50,000 liters ultra-long-lasting filtration: This is a reusable, scrubbable filter element. When the water flow slows down due to sediment accumulation, simply use the included tool to scrub the ceramic surface to restore the flow rate. A single filter element can last up to 50,000 liters, making it the most trusted long-lasting choice for professional explorers and survivalists.
• Long-term storage, hassle-free: The ceramic filter element supports complete dry storage, with no risk of mold and no maintenance required.
• When to replace: A "measuring gauge" is included with the filter element. If, after multiple scrubbings, the diameter of the ceramic surface is smaller than the gauge's notch, it indicates that the ceramic has reached its limit and must be replaced to ensure filtration accuracy.
• Reminder: This product (8013622) is a pure ceramic filter element. If you need to filter out odors, chlorine, or chemicals from the water, please be sure to purchase the [8013624 Activated Carbon Replacement Pack] for use in conjunction to achieve the best drinking water taste.
