Vario Water Filter Facts

• In the outdoors, you need a water filter for all conditions - clear or dirty water the Katadyn Vario is adjustable for different conditions.
• The new Katadyn Microfilter uses ceramic as a cleanable dirt shield and glassfiber for microbiological filtration with minimal pump resistance.
• In “LONGER LIFE” mode the turbid water is first prefiltered throught the ceramic disk.
• When operating in mode “FASTER FLOW” the water is directed straight to the glassfiber membrane, increasing the water flow to up to 2 l/min.
• Replaceable activated carbon granulate reduces chemicals and improves taste and odor.
• A dual piston mechanism provides continous water flow with minimal effort.
• Replacement filters are sold seperately (ceramic disk, glasfibre with AC, activated carbon granulate refills).
• Winner of the “Industry Award 2006” and the “ISPO Outdoor Award Summer 2006”
