KatadynVario Water Filtration Ceramic Disc

Katadyn makes a great filter, and these discs help to keep the filter media clean from debris. It's important to realize that filtering water with sediment will dramatically cut the life of the filter, because this unit (the Vario) is actually a PURIFIER. Now I've used it to clean some really nasty water, and it worked great. When you're out on the trail, sometimes that is your only option. But doing so kills the filter. This "pre-filter" ceramic disc is cleaned with a green scrub pad (or when mine got really bad I used steel wool).This is simply a replacement for the stock piece, and works great.

I am satisfied with the quality of this disc. I have had my Katadyn water filter for a few years now and the disk has performed fantastic. I have had no complaints and purchased this one as a replacement.

First off, the Vario is a great water filter. I do a lot of camping and backpacking, and have had three or four different brands over the years. I currently have a Pur model also, but prefer the Katadyn hands down for its ergonomic use and selectable speed based on the desired life of the filter. This ceramic disc is one of three replaceable pieces of the Katadyn Vario filter, along with the carbon packs and the actual micro filter. Of the three, this is probably the easiest to replace, and can make a huge difference towards the speed of filtration when you're swapping a new ceramic disc for an old one. The included instructions are easy to follow, if you haven't already figured it out based on cleaning your filter post-use. This piece is also the most difficult of the three to find (EMS, Cabela's and REI all failed to stock this) so Amazon is definitely the place to buy this.

Product works as advertised. Love the triple filtration of the Vario. I use a bandana or some sort of cloth tied over the end of the pre-filter to avoid particles getting onto the ceramic filter cause it clogs pretty easy. It is easy to clean with the green scrub pad. i always carry an extra ceramic disk with me just in case. It is cheaper to buy ceramic discs than to buy the glass media filter. Have not used this filter in merky water. Overall filter works great as carbon filters out any bad taste.

My Katadyn filter had quit filtering water. This new disc as well as a new filter got everything working again

I have not replace this yet, so the 5 stars is for the fact that I have not had to replace this yet, I have gotten a lot of mileage out of the original one, so one spare will do me for along time

Needed to have a backup disc for my water purifier so I got this one. Great water purifier but everything wears out so the old adage about two is one and one is none induced me to get a backup filter.

I love the idea of it for emergencies. That is why I bought it and have not used it as of yet. It is a replacement for my Katadyn Vario Multi Flow Water Microfilter. It is in my bug out kit. I gave it the 5 star rating because I have used them before and they work very well.

To produce clean drinking water while hiking.
