MSR MiniWorks EX Water Filter for Backpackers

The MSR MiniWorks EX Microfilter Water Filter is a highly reliable solution for water filtration, specifically designed for a variety of applications such as camping, hiking, backcountry excursions, global travel, survival scenarios, and emergencies. This microfilter effectively utilizes a replaceable Marathon EX ceramic element that efficiently eliminates bacteria—including E. coli, Shigella, salmonella, and cholera—as well as protozoa like giardia, cryptosporidium, and amoebae. It also filters out particulate matter, while its carbon core combats unpleasant tastes and odors caused by organic materials such as iodine, chlorine, and pesticides.

One of the standout features of the MiniWorks EX microfilter is its innovative AirSpring Accumulator, which enables it to pump water at a remarkable rate of one liter per minute. This impressive flow rate can be easily sustained in the field without the need for tools, making it incredibly user-friendly. The filtration system abides by NSF protocol P231, guaranteeing a remarkable removal efficiency of 99.9999% for bacteria and 99.9% for protozoa throughout the lifespan of its replaceable filter, which treats up to 2,000 liters of water.

Designed for versatility, this microfilter is compatible with a wide range of water containers, including popular brands like Nalgene, Camelbak, and MSR Dromedary Bags, which are sold separately. It features a design that allows for easy attachment to threaded lids, or alternatively, water can be directly pumped into a hydration reservoir's drinking tube.

In terms of practicality, the MiniWorks EX microfilter is both lightweight and compact, measuring just 7.5 x 2.75 inches and weighing only one pound. For convenience, a storage bag is included with the purchase. Additionally, this product comes with a manufacturer’s limited lifetime warranty and is proudly made in the USA.
