What Black Berkey Filters Remove

When fitted with authentic Black Berkey elements, this system is so powerful it can remove food coloring from water without removing the beneficial minerals your body needs. Virtually no other system can duplicate this performance.
How the Travel Berkey Water Filter Works
The Travel Berkey Water Filter system is constructed of highly polished 304 stainless steel and comes complete with 2 Black Berkey filtration elements, 2 chambers (upper and lower), a lid, a nylon spigot (can be upgraded to a stainless steel spigot, sight glass spigot, or stainless waterview spigot), a rubber gasket base, and 2 blocking plugs. The system also includes a Primerite Kit, an anti-airlock clip, and red food dye for testing.
The Travel Berkey Water Filter can treat any water source—well water, tap water, or untreated water in regions where water quality may be questionable. Its compact size makes it ideal for apartments, dorm rooms, RVs, boats, camping, and international travel.
If you're concerned about arsenic and/or fluoride in your drinking water, you can install a set of 2 Berkey PF-2 Fluoride and Arsenic filters into the lower chamber as an optional add-on.
Flow Rate & Fluoride Removal
Filtration Flow Rate:
- With 2 Black Berkey Elements: Up to 2.75 gallons per hour
Fluoride Removal: Up to 2 PF-2 fluoride and arsenic reduction filters may be installed in the lower chamber if desired. With the optional PF-2 filters, you're no longer at the mercy of town water fluoridation practices.
