The Drip filter is used by international relief organizations as group equipment for preparing water. Also ideal for use in hunting, fishing and mountain huts.  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). Gravidyn version (ceramic with activated carbon granules) also reduces chemicals.  Unlike disposable filters, the ceramic can be cleaned many times - even in the field. Advantage: longer use and lower operating costs.
