Models with a good balance between water purification speed, size and weight
○ Removes 99.999999% of harmful bacteria and parasites such as echinococcus lurking in the water. Tough-to-use water filter.
Sawyer is the world's highest-performance water filter for portable water purification. It is popular on mountaineering and long trails because it eliminates the need to carry a lot of water and allows you to collect water from rivers, lakes and other water sources scattered around the area and drink it immediately. The ultra-dense filtering process removes 99.999999% of harmful bacteria, waterborne micro-organisms and parasites such as echinococcus lurking in the water and turns it into drinking water.
*This filter cannot remove dissolved solids, including calcium, magnesium and heavy metals dissolved in water, radioactive substances, factory effluents and water that may contain dissolved chemicals, and viruses even finer than bacteria.
○ Water filter for 0.1 microns.
The filter body contains a U-shaped hollow fibre membrane, which filters water through a uniform and countless number of 0.1 micron holes. This allows for a high performance, compact, light and robust filter, with 0.1 microns being equivalent to 0.0001 mm in millimetres and impervious to common bacteria, which are said to be between 0.5 and 1 micron in size.
○ Ground-breaking models covering everything from trekking to international travel.
Flexible design and options allow for a wide range of uses.
(i) Can be jointed directly to commercially available plastic bottles.
In situations where there are no pouches available, water purification can be achieved with easily accessible plastic bottles.
(ii) Can be jointed to an attached pouch.
The pouch can be wrapped around a small filter for compact portability. Pouches can also be purchased separately.
(iii) You can connect the straw provided and drink directly from the bottle.
You can drink purified water through a straw in a glass or bottle or directly from the water source.
(4) Hydration systems from other manufacturers can also be connected.
It is also compatible with hydration, which is essential for mountaineering and trekking.
If the screw part is compatible with the connection, it can be used for even more versatile purposes. Find the utilisation that suits you best.
*Please note that some PET bottles may not be able to be connected if the screw part is not of a common shape.
○Size suitable for carrying around
Although chunky in shape, it is not much different in size from the Sawyer Mini, and its fast water purification speed makes it a well-balanced model that is easy to store and use.
Compact and space-saving, it is easy to slip into a rucksack when outdoors, and can be kept in the car or in an emergency bag to provide strength in times of disaster.
○Winning high acclaim around the world.
Sawyer's high cleaning capacity has been recognised around the world and is used in more than 80 countries and regions around the world where access to clean water is difficult, such as disaster-affected areas and refugee camps. Sawyer cooperates with NPOs and NGOs to provide products. Sawyer works daily to provide people with clean water and has made significant achievements, including a significant reduction in diarrhoea and disease in the areas where it is provided. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the products is also used for international relief activities.
○Water purifiers are also attracting attention as disaster prevention items.
Disaster preparedness is a constant awareness factor in disaster-prone Japan, and compact sawyers are attracting attention as a disaster-prevention item not only because of their high functionality, but also because they reduce the amount of water to be stored and are highly portable. Even when lifelines are disrupted, portable water purifiers can be used to ensure safer drinking water from sources around you.
○Safety recognised by water quality tests in Japan.
The 'Recommended Disaster Prevention Products' approved by the Disaster Prevention and Safety Association, a member organisation of the Cabinet Office's Disaster Prevention Promotion Council, is a system for recommending disaster prevention products that can be used effectively in times of disaster and that are recognised as safe. The 'Recommended Products for Disaster Prevention' are examined and approved by the 'Review Committee for Recommended Products for Disaster Prevention', which is made up of experts in the fields of fire fighting, disaster prevention and disaster medical care.
XX The strength of the fibres, which are outstanding, can purify 380,000 litres of water. Even more economical.
Sawyer's Hollow Fibre has a thicker wall of individual fibres and independent research has proven that it is 75% stronger than other leading brands. This makes the unit resistant to backflushing (maintenance cleaning), eliminates the need for filter replacement and enables 380,000 litres of water to be purified with a single filter - at a rate of 10 litres per day, that's over 100 years of use - making it extremely economical.
And while other companies use random testing or batch testing, where a few items are selected from a large number, Sawyer has been manufacturing all its products in its own factory in Florida since 1984 and conducts three product tests per product to ensure the safety of its products. .
*Many products are available that imitate the performance of Sawyer. Products with low-strength fibres, for example, may not perform adequately after repeated water purification and backflushing. Beware of similar products when purchasing.
○ Backflushing (maintenance cleaning)
After use, impurities can be removed and the filter cleaned by injecting clean water from the reverse direction using the cleaning syringe (without needle) provided. Back flushing restores approximately 98% of the filter's function and allows the water to be purified as it was before.
Micro-squeeze filters can be connected to pouches or plastic bottles by jointing the supplied cleaning coupling to the drinking end, allowing backflushing without the use of a syringe.
*If you feel that functionality does not seem to return, it is recommended to repeat the backflush several times.
