Ultralight water filter where the water is purified directly when you drink – with activated carbon
Katadyn BeFree Filter AC 1.0L is an ultralight and convenient water filter where you
purify the water directly when you drink. You fill the bottle with water, screw on the filter, and squeeze – the water is filtered instantly. No pumping, no hoses, and no waiting time.
AC stands for Activated Carbon and is the main difference from the regular BeFree model. The AC version combines microfiltration with a
replaceable carbon filter that improves taste and reduces odor, chlorine, and cloudiness. This makes the model particularly suitable for both natural water and tap water with poor taste.
Two-step filter – safety and better taste
The first filter step is a
0.1-micron hollow fiber filter that effectively removes bacteria, protozoa, and microplastics. The second step is an
activated carbon filter that reduces chemical tastes, odors, and chlorine. For very clean water, the carbon filter can easily be removed for maximum flow and neutral taste.
Quick cleaning and practical design
The EZ-Clean Membrane™ is easily cleaned in the field by shaking or rinsing in water – no tools or backwashing required. The robust carrying handle makes the bottle easy to hang on a backpack, and the tight flip-lock minimizes the risk of leakage. The silicone mouthpiece can be removed for cleaning or replacement.
