Katadyn Pocket Micro Pump Water Filter

The Katadyn Pocket Microfilter is an iconic, heavy-duty pump filter widely regarded as the gold standard for expedition-grade water purification, trusted by military personnel, emergency crews, and extreme adventurers for over fifty years . At its core is a Swiss-made, 0.2-micron silver-impregnated ceramic depth filter that effectively removes bacteria, protozoa (including Giardia and Cryptosporidium), cysts, algae, spores, and sediment, while the silver impregnation inhibits bacterial growth inside the filter . The robust, ergonomic pump delivers water at a rate of approximately 1 liter per minute, and the filter element has an exceptional lifespan of up to 50,000 liters, depending on water quality, making it a long-term investment rather than a disposable item . Unlike many other filters, the ceramic element is field-cleanable; simply brushing it with the included abrasive pad restores the flow rate, and a measuring gauge is provided to indicate when replacement is necessary . The system is built from top-quality, durable materials like aluminum and stainless steel, weighs approximately 20 ounces, and is backed by Katadyn's industry-leading 20-year or lifetime warranty, ensuring reliable protection in the most demanding conditions.
