Delivering up to 2 quarts per minute, it combines durability, ease of use, and universal compatibility to ensure fresh, safe drinking water wherever your journey takes you. ## Description The Vario Microfilter combines efficiency with the simplest handling. The technology consists of three filter levels: a high-performance glass fiber filter, a ceramic pre-filter that can be adjusted to the cloudiness of the water, and active charcoal for eliminating odors. Cleanable ceramic disc lengthens life of microfilter, 0.2 Micron high surface area pleated glass-fiber microfilter removes waterborne bacteria. Replaceable carbon core reduces chemicals, pesticides and bad taste in water. Review: Great filter - Great product I heard some great reviews and they wernt wrong.

They use a .01 (not 0.1) microns final filter over regular 0.1 filter, which is way better than Katadyn. **Q: How many gallons can it filter per filter?** A: The ceramic prefilter protects the fiber filter from very cloudy water. The ceramic filter can be removed and scrubbed clean to be reused again. Replacements of these filters within the unit are available. Your original question was how many gallons can you filter before replacement. I don't have a good answer for that because I have not replaced our original filters yet. See this video. http://youtu.be/pUgLc3unrBU **Q: does it filter chlorine?** A: The carbon filter may remove some taste of chlorine, but will not eliminate it in the water. Please refer to http://www.katadyn.com/usen/katadyn-products/products/katadynshopconnect/katadyn-water-filters/ **Q: Does this come with the second hose or do you have to use it with a water bottle?** A: It does come with a second hose to throw into the river. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great filter *by M***N on 15 February 2013* Great product I heard some great reviews and they wernt wrong. Thanks for such a great deal, highly recomended. Good for camping etc ### ⭐ Too many moving parts to rely on *by M***1 on 28 September 2024* Broke on third use, cutting camping trip short. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pumped *by A***R on 4 July 2018* what a great product. Its small but so useful. We were able to drink the river water with out any issues, dose not completely filter the taste of the water but that is the least of your worries when your thirsty and out camping with no other water sources. This product changes the way I camp, I no longer need to haul around a few days worth of water, now I just pump it from the closest source! ## Frequently Bought Together - Katadyn Vario Water Filter, Dual Technology Microfilter for Personal or Small Group Camping, Backpacking or Emergency Preparedness - Katadyn Vario Water Filtration Replacement Cartridge , White - Katadyn Vario Water Filtration Ceramic Disc --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.br/products/62188659-katadyn-vario-water-filter-dual-technology-microfilter-for-personal-small](https://www.desertcart.com.br/products/62188659-katadyn-vario-water-filter-dual-technology-microfilter-for-personal-small) --- *Product available on Desertcart Brazil* *Store origin: BR* *Last updated: 2026-06-22*
