Water Filter Bottle Adaptor Active Carbon

"The Katadyn Carbon Cartridge is not what it looks like in Amazon's web page. In fairness, the Amazon portrayal is the same as what is shown on Katadyn's web page, as well as on the box it comes in. What is in the box is simply the cartridge cap that is shown on the bottle, There is no bottle and no hose, even though the box is big enough to contain them. And there is no disclaimer on the box that they are not there, either. The only way to know what you are getting is to carefully read Amazon's written product description and make no assumptions. but remember that the picture is also like a description! What you do get, will function as needed. Just don't expect the extras. I paid for that too much. That cost 17 dollars in USA, I have paid 24 Pounds here. This box is worth maximum 12 Pounds for me."

Not simple to fill up with the carbon powder. If carbon particles spill on the seal then it will not seal properly. Not a very good design. When pumping water through, it leaks. Expensive.

This little baby comes in handy, especially when you have a ceramic filter without an inner carbon core. One great feature about this filter is that you can add carbon and remove it whenever you desire. Of course you can buy the carbon refill packets directly from Katadyn, but that would cost a bunch of money if you use this filter frequently. I found a great website online that sells high quality Activated Carbon that is suitable to refill this filter. Twenty or thirty dollars can buy you enough activated carbon to use this filter for a long time. If you look closely at this filter you will see a beveled lip. This is used to rest the filter housing as it sits directly on top of your water bottle. This filter fits absolutely perfectly inside of my 64 ounce Kleen Kanteen. I hook this filter directly up to the output hose of my Katadyn Pocket Filter so the water passes through the ceramic before it hits the carbon. One piece of advice would be to slowly pump the water through the filter so that it has a long "contact time" with the activated carbon medium inside the filter. An ideal situation would be to slowly drip the water through this filter, but of course that would be extremely difficult. Another option would be to do what I did and buy two of them and hook them up in series (one after the other), that way the water passes through two carbon filters. Remember, ceramic filter remove particles and some bacteria/viruses, but they do nothing to improve the taste of the water or remove chemicals. Activated carbon filters on the other hand work great at removing chemicals and chlorine and subsequently improving the taste of the water. I highly recommend this filter. Just remember though, this filter does you no good unless you already have another filter to hook it up to. This filter does not come with any hoses and is impossible to drip water into the tiny holes. This is precisely why it must be used in conjunction with another filter.

Par adquirir una potabilización desterrando ciertos microorganismos resulta necesaria; el inconveniente es que se adquiere aparte, así como los sobres de carbono activo que sí vienen con este filtro.

One of the best design for functionality! Highly recommend!
