British Berkefeld - additional replacement
filter information:
British Berkefeld water filters are
also compact, portable, and simple to operate. Requiring no external plumbing,
each filter takes only minutes to assemble and can provide up to 24 gallons or
more of safe drinking water each day.
Long
lasting filter elements will filter up to 60,000 gallons
The high-tech silver-impregnated ceramic elements feature a
nominal filtration efficiency of : 0.2 microns >98%, at 0.5 microns >99.9%, and at
0.9 microns > 99.99% which effectively blocks waterborne pathogens and clarifies the
water. The replaceable filter elements have an activated carbon core and are
designed to remove undesirable tastes, odors, and many organic chemicals.
These filters are in common everyday use in
households across the country, and are particularly effective on private well systems.
The ease of operation combined with a proven
effectiveness at eliminating water-borne diseases such as cholera and typhoid has led to
the British Berkefeld Filter being the preferred unit for field operations by many of the
world's major aid and emergency relief organizations.
Protect yourself and your family.
Produces safe drinking water from lakes,
cisterns, streams, etc.
Reliable design uses gravity — no pumps
to wear out
Long lasting filter elements will filter up to
60,000 gallons (using four elements),
depending on turbidity level of the water being filtered and proper care of the filter
elements
Stainless steel construction — sanitary,
easy to clean, and will last longer than plastic containers
Independently tested by Spectrum Labs,
University of Arizona, Clare Microbiological, Loughborough University, and Hyder.
A rigorous program of independent testing of
our British Berkefeld water filters ensures complete verification of all product
performance claims.

The Older Tried and True Technology...
Black Berkey® Purification Elements are more powerful than
any other gravity filter element currently available. In fact, we tested
the Black Berkey® purification elements with more than
10,000 times the concentration of pathogens per liter than is required by
standard test protocol. This concentration of pathogens is so great that
the post filtered water should be expected to contain 100,000 or more
pathogens per liter (99.99% reduction - the requirement for
pathogenic removal). Incredibly the
purification elements removed 100%. Absolutely no pathogens were cultured
from the effluent or were able to be detected, even under an electron
microscope, setting a new standard in water purification. More
