SteriPEN Classic With Pre Filter

Features

• Ultraviolet (UV-C) light rays safely sterilize clear water by destroying viruses, bacteria and protozoa including Giardia and Cryptosporidium
• Simple to use: Just press a button and gently agitate the water with a quick stir
• Purifies 500ml of water (cold or warm) in less than a minute or 1 litre in a minute and a half
• Small size fits most containers - use it in cups, mugs, water bottles and canteens
• Turns itself off once ultraviolet treatment is complete; can be used up to 5,000 times!
• Watertight seals keep water away from the electronics; rubberised inset grips for secure handling in wet conditions
• Low-power indicator lets you know when batteries need replacing; twist-off cap for easy battery access
• Long used by municipal water districts and bottling companies, low-level UV-C light treats water safely, and unit's light will not damage eyes or skin
• Four alkaline AA batteries purify 20 to 40 500ml glasses of water; purify 130 to 140 glasses with lithium AA batteries (batteries sold separately)
• Use only on clear water, as cloudy, sediment-laden water hinders effectiveness
• The SteriPEN® Classic comes with a neoprene storage case

Specifications

Technology

Extensive microbiological and structural testing by independent laboratories across the U.S. and Canada has proven SteriPEN® to be safe and effective, confirming the fact that SteriPEN®’s UV light technology eliminates over 99.9% of bacteria, viruses and protozoa that cause water-borne illness. As a result, SteriPEN® has earned the Water Quality Association’s Gold Seal, certifying that SteriPEN purifies water safely and effectively.

• Proven Technology:
  • SteriPEN® products use ultraviolet (UV) light technology to purify water, destroying more than 99.9 percent of bacteria, viruses and protozoan cysts such as giardia and cryptosporidia.
• Proven Effective:
  • SteriPEN®’s effectiveness has been well established in a wide range of tests conducted by several certified independent laboratories and test facilities across the U.S. and Canada. These rigorous tests prove that SteriPEN® exceeds the standard set forth in the U.S. EPA Guide Standard and Protocol for Testing Microbiological Water Purifiers. SteriPEN® products have also been ceritifed as safe and effective by the Water Quality Association.
• Proven Durability
  • Electronic testing has been conducted in house and at EBW Electronics of Holland, MI. Testing has centered on UV lamp and electronic circuit behavior and reliability. SteriPEN® lamps and electronics have been successfully cycle tested beyond their specified lamp life and operated at a range of temperature extremes. Every production assembly will be thoroughly electronically tested with individual test results archived, prior to being packaged.
  • Mechanical Testing has been designed to insure that SteriPEN® will stand up to some abuse. Pressure testing of seals around lamp and water sensors indicates good water tight integrity. And drop testing from 3 feet onto cement has shown good mechanical integrity with no component failure.

Care

• When not in use, keep your SteriPEN® in a clean, dry, non-abrasive area or container.
• Your SteriPEN® should not be exposed to ambient temperatures above 60°C or below -20°C. Warm or cool before using if the SteriPEN® is outside of these temperatures.
• When storing your SteriPEN® for long periods, remove the batteries.
• To clean your SterPEN® wash with a soft cloth and a mild soap solution. Rinse soap off and dry with a clean, soft cloth.
