The Platypus GravityWorks System 6L U24 water filter system is a high-performance gravity-operated system designed for groups and camping bases. It works without a pump, utilizing the height difference between the dirty water pouch and the clean water pouch. Equipped with a small fiber filter with a 0.2-micron perforation, it allows water flow rates up to 1.75 liters per minute, facilitating quick filling of bottles, containers, and kitchenware.
The Platypus GravityWorks system uses hundreds of fine hollow fiber capillaries, which, due to their large surface area, filter water more rapidly than traditional filter media. Each microfilter is tested individually to meet EPA and NSF guidelines, removing 99.9999% of bacteria and 99.9% of protozoa. The filter's lifespan is up to 1500 liters of filtered water, enabling long-term use when proper maintenance procedures are followed. If the flow rate decreases, the filter can be quickly cleaned in the field through reverse washing.
The Platypus GravityWorks System 6L U24 includes a 6-liter clean water pouch, a 6-liter dirty water pouch, a microfilter, flexible tubing, a valve, and a carrying bag. The containers and tubing are made of polyethylene, selected for durability against typical outdoor stresses and repeated folding. Water collection involves opening the top of the dirty water pouch, drawing water from a stream, closing the pouch, and hanging it higher so gravity can do the work. The tube valve allows precise separation of filtered water into bottles and kitchenware.
