The British Berkefeld® is the
Original Gravity Water Filter System with a history
dating back to the 1800's. It is designed for use in situations
where a reliable supply of treated drinking water is unavailable
and is known as the water filter of choice by missionaries and relief
agencies around the world. Unbelievable as it sounds you can actually
pour creek water in this filter and a short time later have clean,
good tasting water. How? The pore structure of the ceramic
filters inside is designed to remove very fine particles and
bacteria. Can be used camping or where there is no municipally treated
water. The gravity feed system also works when water pressure is
too low for other filters.
Takes minutes to assemble and can provide up to 24 gallons of safe
drinking water each day. Constructed of high grade, polished stainless
steel making it hygienic, durable and easy to clean. The two piece
housing is portable and can be used virtually anywhere, anytime.
The upper chamber is filled with water which gravity feeds through
the filters into the lower chamber. An easy to turn On-Off spigot
is used as the outflow tap. The "Super
Sterasyl" filters reduce up to 99.99% of particulates,
cysts, parasites and pathogenic bacteria including but not limited
to E. Coli, Cryptosporidium, Giardia and Salmonella Typhi. Additionally,
these filters will reduce chlorine, rust, sediment and organic chemicals.
With filtration rating efficiencies of
>98% down to 0.2 microns (Spectrum Labs)
>99.9% at 0.5 microns
>99.99% at 0.9 microns
this is one powerful filter system. The durable ceramic filters
can be cleaned over and over with a soft brush or Scotch Brite pad
and the filter media in this product contains pure silver, an effective
antimicrobial (bacteriostatic)
agent. Each standard 7" filter element will provide efficient
pathogenic filtration from 2,000 gallons to 15,000 gallons depending
on turbidity of water and care taken of filter elements. Detailed
easy to assemble and operating instructions are included.
