The Katadyn Vario combines individual efficiency with the simplest possible handling. The technology it uses consists of three filter levels: a high-performance glass fiber filter, a ceramic pre-filter that can be adjusted individually according to the cloudiness of the water, and active charcoal for eliminating odors. Anyone who needs up to two liters of drinking water per minute can use the glass fiber and active charcoal filter. If the water is extremely cloudy, the ceramic pre-filter can be fitted in a moment in order to extend the service life of the glass fiber filter. The Vario is compatible with most standard outdoor bottles and hydration bladders. Backcountry Series products from Katadyn are ideal for camping, backpacking and trekking. They are lightweight, compact and the easiest way to make safe water. Backcountry Series products are the favourite choice for all-around use. 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).
