1. MIX SALT WATER
2. ADD SALT WATER TO THE PURIFIER
Add salt up to the fill line in the
supplied bottle, then add water up
to the neck of the bottle. Shake to
dissolve the salt. The 30 mL bottle
now has enough volume to make
about 10 batches of disinfectant.
Fill the reaction chamber with
salt water.
NOTE: If the salt water bottle is not
available, a pinch of salt (roughly ½ gram
or 1/16 tsp) can be added directly into the
reaction chamber, followed by enough
water to fill the chamber. Allow the salt to
dissolve before operating the device.
TIPS
•The purifier will treat about 150 liters at standard dose before the
battery needs to be recharged. Any micro USB charger will
recharge the battery. 1 hour of solar exposure will add enough
energy to treat about 2 liters at standard dose.
•If the brine bottle is lost, add a pinch of salt (about ½ gram or
1/16 tsp) to the cell chamber, add water to the chamber, and
allow salt to dissolve before activating.
•Chlorine test strips are available to verify water quality. For
details, refer to the web site.
3. MAKE DISINFECTANT
Push the activation button to select
the volume of water to treat. Press
and hold (for about 2 seconds) until
you see bubbling in the reaction
chamber.

5. DISINFECT LID
4. ADD DISINFECTANT TO THE WATER
6. WAIT BEFORE DRINKING
Once bubbling has stopped,
pour the disinfectant into the
water to be treated. If
treating for Cryptosporidium
and the water is cloudy or
colored, add a second dose.
Close the lid and shake thoroughly.
If drinking from the
container, remove the lid
and moisten the threads
with treated water. Reattach
the lid to the container.
Wait 30 minutes for
inactivation of bacteria,
viruses, and Giardia, and a
