Camp Gravity Microfilter
This gravity
filter is practical and versatile in application. The Katadyn Camp model
comprises a siphon filter, with silver impregnated ceramic, and a 10 liter
water bag. This simple system allows filtration without pumping. Eliminates
bacteria, protozoa, cysts, algae, spores, sediments, and viruses in
combination with particles greater than 0.2 microns. Reduces Radio active
particles.
Facts:
• Pumping not necessary thanks to gravity
• The Camp filter consists of a siphon filter and a 10 litre
Ortlieb water bag
• The siphon is attached to the inside of the water bag with an
adapter; the water bag is filled and hung up, e.g.
from the nearest tree
• 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
• The fastest non pump filter

In 2001, employee-owned Katadyn of Switzerland purchase Exstream and PUR
Outdoor/Marine products and created a new subsidiary named Katadyn North
America to meet the needs of American and Canadian outdoor retailers.
Katadyn is also changing the way drinking water systems are sold. Instead of
three separate brandsm Katadyn products are categorized into three user
types/series. The Endurance Series products offer ultimate reliability and
durability, while the Backcountry Series products are ideal for camping,
backpacking and trekking and the Ultralight Series products are the lightest
water systems available on the market.
