I cannot ship to Iowa or California
Features:
The versatile Big Berkey® Super Sterasyl system is the ideal system for use at home with small or medium sized families, travel, outdoor activities or during unexpected emergencies.
Constructed of highly polished 304 stainless steel, the system comes complete with two 9" Super Sterasyl Ceramic Filter Elements and two PF4 Flouride & Arsenic Reduction Elements. This system has a storage capacity of about 2.25 gallons and when in use it stands 19.25" in height with a diameter of 8.5". The upper chamber nests within the lower chamber for transport and stands only 13" in height.
Configured with two 9" Super Sterasyl Ceramic Filter Elements the system will purify 2-3 gallons per hour.*
*Flow rate calculated with upper chamber full to top. Flow rate decreases as water level declines. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Specifications on the 9" Super Sterasyl Ceramic Filter Elements:
The Sterasyl™ grade ceramic is designed to remove suspended solids and pathogenic bacteria.
Composition of the Sterasyl™ ceramic contains pure silver. This silver
is a specially formulated self-sterilizing (bacteriostatic) agent. The
result is that bacterial growth is prevented from occurring within the
Sterasyl™ ceramic element. More importantly, bacterial 'grow-through'
is inhibited. Because of the silver, Sterasyl™ filter elements do not
require sterilization after cleaning.
The Sterasyl™
ceramic is the ceramic used for the Super Sterasyl™ filter element.
Accordingly, this filter element will have, at a minimum, the
filtration benefits of Sterasyl™.
Toxicological
extraction is commonly the most difficult area of the NSF testing
standards to satisfy. This shows that the filter does not
re-contaminate the water. Many other ceramics have not passed and may
not be capable of passing the NSF material extraction test. The Ceramic
shell of our Super Sterasyl˙ element is an NSF Listed Component and is
manufactured to meet NSF standard 42 for materials.
Super Sterasyl™ Candle Water Filter Element
This cleanable filter element is designed to reduce suspended solids,
pathogenic bacteria, organic chemicals, and improve taste and odor. The
filter elements are produced using the latest ceramic techniques to
provide a hollow porous ceramic which is fired at a temperature in
excess of 1000C. They are designed to operate with water flow going
from the outside to inside of the element. The ceramic shell exhibits a
strictly controlled pore structure, so as to provide efficient
sub-micron filtration, a proven defense against hard shelled parasites
such as Cryptosporidium, as well as removing other less harmful, but
equally unpleasant particulate debris, such as rust and dirt. The bore
of the filter candle contains granular activated carbon that aids in
the reduction of chlorine, reduces organic chemicals and improves the
color, taste, and odor of the source water. The Sterasyl™ element has a
unique domed ceiling assuring that leakage cannot occur as may happen
with capped filters.

Contaminant Reduction and Removal Pathogenic bacteria
Bacterial mitosis and 'grow-through'
Mitosis is the name for the usual method of bacterial cell division.
This division is characterized by resolving the chromatin of the cell
nucleus into a threadlike form that condenses into chromosomes, each of
which separates longitudinally into two parts, one part of each
chromosome being retained in each of the two new daughter cells.
When conditions of growth (cell division) are right (proper
environmental conditions, temperature, pressure, etc.) and sufficient
nutrients, the 'threadlike forms' can penetrate the ceramic structure
of other ceramic shells and create bacterial cells on the inside of the
element.
Sterasyl™ grade filter elements incorporate
pure silver into the porous ceramic shell to inhibit the occurrenceof
'grow-through'.
Specifications on the PF4 Flouride & Arsenic Reduction Elements:
PF-4 reduction elements are designed for use in conjunction with the Super Sterasyl Ceramic Filter Elements to adsorb the following unwanted elements found in drinking water.
• Fluoride • MTBE • Lead • Arsenic
• Other residual heavy metal ions
TECHNICAL INFORMATION:
FLUORIDE:
Testing for fluoride was based on 20-30ppm of the ion in the influent
aqueous solution at a flow rate of no more than 3 gpm per cubic foot of
media. Results of < 1ppm of the fluoride ion in the effluent were
typical for the media (>95% reduction). Under optimum conditions,
effluent concentrations of less than 50 ppb were readily achieved
(>99.75% reduction).
REPLACEMENT:
Under normal conditions it is recommended that each set of two PF-4 elements be replaced after 1,000 gallons or 6 months, whichever comes first.
