How does SteriPEN work?
SteriPEN creates ultraviolet (UV) light that disrupts the DNA of microbes in seconds. Without functional DNA, microbes can't reproduce or make you sick.
SteriPEN is effective against:
- Outdoor microbes such as: Cryptosporidium, Viruses, Bacteria and Giardia
- Travel pathogens that cause: Diarrhea, Dysentery, Hepatitis and Legionnaires disease
- Household germs such as: Bird Flu and influenzas, E. coli and Salmonella, Staph and Strep
- Natural disaster/bio-terror risks that cause: Botulism, Cholera, Smallpox and Typhoid
The SteriPEN Classic Safe Water System includes SteriPEN Classic, the Water Bottle Pre-Filter and a Nalgene® BPA-Free wide-mouth 1L (32 oz) water bottle. The 40x40 micron screen Pre-Filter fits snugly on the wide-mouth water bottle, protecting the drinking threads, and allows clear water to flow into the bottle while removing particulates.
SteriPEN exceeds U.S EPA Guide Standard and Protocol for Testing Microbiological Water Purifiers, destroying over 99.9999% of bacteria, 99.99% of viruses and 99.9% of protozoa when used as directed. Complete test results at www.steripen.com
