Platypus QuickDraw Microfilter
Easy-to-use, ultralight, and compact water travel filter. The Platypus QuickDraw Microfilter stands out among other water filters primarily for its fast flow rate. It weighs only 67 g and takes up minimal space.
Truly well-designed, high-performance water filter for long treks and travel.
Specifications
The QuickDraw microfiber water filter is a new product for 2021 from the brand Platypus. The filter can be easily attached to standard PET water bottles or Platypus collapsible bottles. It filters water at a speed of up to 3 liters per minute.
To clean it, you simply shake the hollow fiber filter or perform backflushing without the need for any additional tools. The cleverly designed filter body and closures on both ends ensure that no water leaks from the filter into your backpack during transport.
Each filter is individually tested to ensure it meets all EPA and NSF guidelines for the removal of 99,9999% of bacteria and 99,9% of protozoa (this includes Giardia, Cryptosporidium, E. coli, Salmonella, and cholera).
The filter's stated lifespan is 1000 liters. While this may seem low compared to competing filters, it is sufficient for several years of use in the field. To put it into perspective, try calculating how much water you actually filter during one hiking season.
