Katadyn Gravity Camp Water Filter

:: Group-sized water filtration system reviewed for UKHillwalking.com ::

29th April 2016

The Katadyn Gravity Camp 6L water filter system is aimed at group use in the backcountry – although it will not protect you against some viruses.

The full review can be found over on the UKHillwalking.com website.

From the review:

Two things really impressed me with this system. Firstly, the flow rate. At around 2 litres per minute, Katadyn claim this is the fastest gravity-assisted filter on the market. Secondly, the weight, which makes life easier if you’re carrying it any distance. I tested it during a skills training trip in North Wales with a private client, and once the bag was filled it was like having a tap right there in the woods with us.

Effective against bacteria and other nasty microorganisms, the Gravity works even with cloudy water. If you keep the filter protector clean its filter is good for 1500 litres, reckon Katadyn, but when it does reach the end of its life the filter element is replaceable.
