How it works
The special purification cap in the AQUA-PURE Traveller contains a
fine and complicated matrix of paths that prevents all waterborne
pathogens from entering your drinking water. The 2 micron absolute GAC (Granular Activated Carbon) porous plastic filter impregnated with exclusive adsorbing medias, provides you with water that’s safe to drink.
On models with iodine sleeve it just simply slips over the plastic filter.
