This Seychelle RAD filter fits the 28 oz. fliptop water bottle, the pump and the 38 oz. canteen as long as the canteen lid has a check valve (a white plastic valve attached to the inside of the cap). If your canteen does not have the check valve, you can get a new cap that does. Call us for more details at 866-875-4386.
The RAD filter is ideal for any outdoor use, like traveling, hiking, biking, camping, fishing or for emergency purposes. It can be used with any type of water source; tap or rainwater, rivers, streams or even lakes (excluding salt water).
The new RAD filter removes the four basic zones of contamination:
- Aesthetic (Chlorine, taste and odor),
- Chemicals (from Industry and Agriculture),
- Dissolved Solids (heavy metals such as lead, mercury, Chromium 6)
- Up to 99.99% of Radiological Contaminants such as Gross Beta, Radon 222, Radium 226, Plutonium, Uranium, Cesium 137 and Radioactive Iodine 131.
The filter is designed with a hard shell that is formed to exact or 2 micron absolute porosity. The filter is impregnated with various proprietary media that have the ability to remove, absorb, adsorb, chemically bond and chelate different contaminants as they pass through the tortuous path designed in the filter. The basic media in the filter is a proprietary powder activated coconut carbon that has a surface phenomenon that causes a molecular attraction of substances to the surface of the filter. The rate or volume of adsorption or removal of toxic chemicals, radioactive contaminates and heavy metals is caused by the specific volume of medias used, their quality, and the flow rate of water passing through the filter.
