| The replacement filter for the Personal Portable Water Filter Bottle features an IONIC absorbtion micro filtration system. It is capable of 99% REDUCTION in all 4 areas of contamination: unpleasant tastes and odors, chemicals, micro-biogical, and heavy metals. As fast as you can squeeze the bottle it will filter the contaminants immediately. Also known as the Clearbrook Replacement Filter. The Replacement Filter for the Personal Portable Water Filter Bottle features an IONIC ADSORPTION MICRO FILTRATION SYSTEM. This means it removes or dramatically reduces nearly all health-threatening contaminants from questionable water sources. As fast as you can squeeze the bottle it will filter the contaminants immediately. Used by government and international relief organizations around the world. Provides 1600 Refills—a minimum of 250 gallons for municipally treated water. Replaceable Filter Rating 1600 refills/250 gal - Chlorine, Taste, and Odor 640 refills/100 gal - Microbiological contaminants 160 refills/25 gal - ALL contaminants, as listed in test results Clean refreshing filtered water from any source. The ONLY personal water filtration system capable of 99% REMOVAL & REDUCTION in all 4 areas of contamination. · Unpleasant tastes & odors, chlorine, silt, sand, & sediment · Microbiological contaminants and microscopic pathogens such as e-coli, cryptosporidium, giardia, bacteria, cysts, and spores. · Chemical, such as industrial VOC's (Volatile Organic Compounds), PCB's (Polychlorinated Biphenyls), THM's (Trihalomethanes), Agricultural SOC's (Synthetic Organic Compounds), detergents, pesticides, DDT, asbestos, and others. · Heavy Metals, such as aluminum, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, and mercury. · Radiologicals, such as radon 222. The Replacement Filter Utilizes IONIC ADSORPTION MICRO FILTRATION This advanced technology was developed, refined, and proven through diligent, investigative research and testing performed by water purification specialists, researchers and engineers. The media within the filter element removes contaminants by a surface phenomenon known as "adsorption" which results from the molecular attraction of substances to the surface of the media. As the bottle is pressed, the source water is forced through the filter. The quality and volume of media used determine the rate of adsorption. The flow rate or time of exposure through the filter has been calculated to yield the greatest volume removal of toxic chemicals caused by pollution from industry and agriculture. This exclusive filter element is impregnated with proprietary "absorbing" media that promotes IONIC "absorption" of pollutants within the micro-porous element, such as aluminum, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, mercury, and other dangerous heavy metals. The "Tortuous Path" structure of these pores gives it its unique characteristics. The Portable Water Filter Bottle offers a convenient and portable filtration system using medical grade technology. This filter has been tested by the University of Arizona and by Spectrum Labs in accordance with the EPA Protocol for Microbiological Purifiers and ANSI/NSF 53 adapted for sport bottles. Note: If using a source of water that might contain extreme bacteriological or viral contamination, it is recommended that two drops of plain Clorox or iodine be added to each refill before filtering. This will kill minute pathogens such as viruses. The disinfectant will then be filtered from the water entirely removing its odor, color and taste. Care and Use Fill the Personal Portable Water Purifier with water, screw on cap and tighten securely to eliminate leaks. Flush water through filter by pulling down lever, so that straw is exposed, and squeeze water through filter & out the straw. Repeat this flushing process twice before drinking. This removes excess process dust from the filter. After 2 flushes, rinse the bottle & cap. Your filter bottle is now ready for use. Enjoy! Maintenance and Storage The Personal Portable Water Purifier has a shelf life of 50 years. When the filter system will not be used for an extended period, flush the unit with a chlorinated solution of 1/4 tsp. per one half gallon of water. Allow to dry thoroughly with bottom cap removed. Re-assemble and stow. Do not allow filter to freeze, do not place in microwave oven and do not run hot water through the filter. Note: All contaminants that this filter has the ability to remove or reduce may not necessarily be in the user's water supply. Personal Portable Water Filters are used by government and international relief organizations around the world. All materials FDA food grade approved. Filter is tested by EPA & State registered laboratories and meets and/or exceeds EPA, ANSI/NSF (std. 53) protocol. Replaceable Filter Rating - 1600 refills / 250 gal - Chlorine, Taste, and Odor
