How do the current filters pump water 45% faster? Introducing the AirSpring Accumulator:

By using a bubble of trapped air, the AirSpring Accumulator pushes more water through in less time. On the handle down stroke the air bubble is compressed, storing some of the pump force, then on the up stroke, the bubble expands pushing water through the cartridge.

Simplicity

If you’ll happily pump, but you want to keep it simple and lightweight, our Simplicity Series is for you.

Microfilter

With its unique lever-action pump handle, the MSR SweetWater® Microfilter is the easiest-to-use water filter. It pumps water on both up and down strokes, resulting in a fast flow rate of 1.25 liters per minute. When not in use, the handle folds flat for compact storage. Weighing just 320g it's also one of the lightest filters on the market. It uses replaceable filter cartridges, and each cartridge filters up to 200 gallons of water. A layer of granular activated carbon surrounds the filter element and improves the taste of unsavory water. Eliminates over 99.9999% of all waterborne bacteria and 99.9% of common protozoan parasites such as Giardia and Cryptosporidium. It comes with a stainless steel pre-filter, two color-coded silicone hoses, foam float, water bottle adapter, cleaning brush, and carry bag.

ViralStop

ViralStop™ is a chlorine-based purifier solution that provides simple and fast virus protection - just add 5 drops of ViralStop™ to each liter of filtered water, mix for at least 10 seconds, and wait 5 minutes. ViralStop™ comes in a spill-proof dispenser bottle for accurate measuring. Proven effective, chlorine is used to treat over 95% of all U.S. tap water. Most people believe it tastes much better than water treated with iodine-based products.

ViralStop™ contains a special grade of Chlorine Solution, which prolongs shelf life and is EPA registered. We have carefully tuned the ViralStop™ solution for the best possible combination of performance (fewer drops per liter = less weight to carry) and shelf life.

With ViralStop™ as a key component, the MSR Sweetwater® Purifier System meets stringent EPA standards and inactivates 99.99% of waterborne viruses and eliminates over 99.9999% of all waterborne bacteria and 99.9% of common protozoan parasites such as Giardia and Cryptosporidium.

ViralStop purifier solution has only been tested and approved for use with the MSR Sweetwater® microfilter. We do not recommend use with any other filter.
