The Platypus GravityWorks 4.0 Liter High-Capacity Water Filtration System is a versatile and efficient solution for clean water access in a variety of outdoor settings, from basecamp to emergency preparedness. Designed with ease of use and reliability in mind, this gravity-fed system does not require any pumps, batteries, or chemicals, making it an ideal choice for group and family camping, outdoor adventures, and emergency situations.
One of the key features of the Platypus GravityWorks system is its ability to remove 99.9999% of bacteria and 99.9% of protozoa, including Giardia, Cryptosporidium, E. coli, Salmonella, and Cholera, meeting all EPA and NSF guidelines for water purification. This ensures that users can confidently access clean water from contaminated sources, whether they are engaged in adventure activities or facing survival scenarios.
The system's simple operation is a major advantage. To use it, users simply need to scoop water from a lake, river, stream, or other contaminated source into the 4.0-liter dirty water reservoir. The water then flows through the hollow-fiber microfilter cartridge at a rate of 1.75 liters per minute, leaving impurities behind and filling the 4.0-liter clean water reservoir in just 2.5 minutes. This allows for quick and efficient access to clean water for cooking, washing, and other essential needs.
The Platypus GravityWorks system is also designed for easy maintenance in the field. The microfilter cartridge is replaceable, with a capacity of up to 1,500 gallons, ensuring long-lasting performance. Additionally, the system can be backflushed in just four seconds to clean and restore its filtration capabilities.
The complete kit, which includes the 4-liter dirty water reservoir, 4-liter clean water reservoir, hollow-fiber microfilter, hoses, shutoff clamp, and storage sack, is compact and lightweight, weighing just 11.5 ounces and packing down to the size of a one-liter water bottle. This makes it easy to transport and store, making it a valuable asset for any outdoor enthusiast or emergency preparedness plan.
In summary, the Platypus GravityWorks 4.0 Liter High-Capacity Water Filtration System is a reliable and user-friendly solution for accessing clean water in a variety of outdoor settings. Its gravity-fed design, high-capacity filtration capabilities, and easy maintenance make it an excellent choice for group and family camping, outdoor adventures, and emergency preparedness.
