The Berkey Light system is designed for use during travel, outdoor activities and during unexpected emergencies. This powerful system purifies both treated water and untreated raw water from such sources as remote lakes, streams, stagnant ponds and water supplies in foreign countries, where regulations may be substandard at best. Perfect for outdoor activities and a must in hostile environments where electricity, water pressure or treated water may not be available.
The Berkey Light water purification system may be ordered with your choice of one discounted accessory. For a description of the various accessories see:PF-2 Fluoride/Arsenic Filters, Berkey Replacement Parts, or Berkey Primer.
The Berkey Light system does not leach foul-tasting plasticisers into your water and will not retain foul tastes and odours from waterborne contaminants. As the system purifies water, it produces the delightful and relaxing sound of falling raindrops.
The Berkey Light assembles in minutes without tools, electricity, water pressure, or plumbing.
The Berkey Light is also easy to operate, clean, and maintain.
The revolutionary Berkey Light™ self-sterilizing and cleanable purification elements purify water by removing or reducing viruses, pathogenic bacteria, cysts and parasites entirely and by extracting harmful chemicals such as herbicides, pesticides, VOCs, organic solvents, radon 222 and trihalomethanes. They also reduce nitrites, sediment and unhealthy minerals such as lead and mercury (See which contaminants are eliminated by the Black Berkey Filters). So powerful, this system is able to remove red food colouring from water without removing the beneficial minerals your body needs. Virtually no other system can duplicate this performance.
Constructed of a shatter-resistant, high-impact strength non-BPA copolyester, the system comes complete with two or four purification elements, a base and utilises the latest technological advances. The system stands 53cm. when used without the base (included).
Each durable Black Berkey filter will last for up to 11,350 litres (22,700 litres per set of 2). At 38 litres per week, this is equivalent to 600 weeks. That's more than 11.5 years of clean water!
Configured with two Black Berkey purification elements, the system will purify up to 15.1 litres per hour. This system can be expanded to use four Black Berkey purification elements and is then capable of purifying up to 30.2 litres per hour.*
*Flow rates are calculated with the upper chamber full to the top. The flow rate decreases as the water level declines. As it is impractical to keep the upper chamber completely full at all times, the flow rates are in practice less than the stated optimal rate.
