The Katadyn Vario Microfilter is the only water filter adjustable for different conditions - and passes the US Environmental Protection Agency Test Standard Reduction Test: Bacteria (Klebsiella) 99.9999%, Protozoa (Giardia, Cryptosporidium): 99.9%

The technology it uses consists of three filter levels: a high-performance glass fiber filter, a ceramic pre-filter that can be adjusted individually according to the cloudiness of the water, and active charcoal for eliminating odors.

Anyone who needs ultra fast flow two liters of drinking water per minute can use the glass fiber and active charcoal filter.

If the water is extremely cloudy, the ceramic pre-filter can be fitted in seconds in order to extend the service life of the glass fiber filter and eliminate sediment and particles.  The carbon filter is replaceable separately so water always tastes fresh.

The Vario is compatible with most standard outdoor bottles and hydration bladders. Katadyn Vario Video

Micropur Tablets have safety benefits over iodine tablets and are the only purification tablet technology that meets the U.S. EPA safety guidelines.

Effective against all microorganisms.
Even in dirty water conditions, Micropur MP1 tablets eliminate bacteria, cysts and viruses from virtually any water situation.

     Microrganisms Killed   -   Clear Water - Dirty Water
                             Bacteria   15 Minutes      15 Minutes
                             Virus        15 Minutes      15 Minutes
                             Cysts       30 Minutes       4 Hours

The US military has selected Micropur tablets to replace iodine tablets in soldier first aid kits. Also used by the Boy Scouts, Sierra Club, and State Departments of Health for Emergency Preparedness. Soldiers appreciate that Micropur has no unpleasant taste and can actually improve the taste of drinking water.

Another improvement is that each Chlorine Dioxide tablet is individually wrapped and has a shelf life in excess of 5 years. Chlorine dioxide is iodine and chlorine free. Chlorine dioxide has been used by municipal water treatment plants to kill a variety of waterborne pathogens since the late 1940s. Unlike free chlorine (familiar as household bleach) or other halogen chemicals (such as iodine), chlorine dioxide does not create potentially harmful by-products.

TIP: Use this with the above Katadyn Vario for complete protection and improved water taste and odor.
