Berkey® Gravity Water Purifiers |
Durable, stainless steel icons of purity, Berkey purifier systems have produced safe water for millions of people around the globe for decades. Equipped with the new Black Berkey® purifying elements, Berkey® Stainless purifying systems removed pathogens at the EPA's incredibly high "Log 7" standard, meaning that no more than one contaminant molecule per ten million remains in the cleaned water.
Unprecedented purifying effectiveness: Berkey® purifiers using the Black Berkey® purification elements are proven to reduce pathogenic bacteria (including E. Coli, Klebsiella, Pseudomonas Aeruginosa, Giardia and Cryptosporidium) by 99.99999%. The Berkey Light® System has been tested with the maximum pathogenic contamination levels that can be produced in a laboratory. When contamination levels exceed one billion pathogens per liter of water (10,000 times the density of contamination used in the standard test protocol for bacteriological removal) they become too numerous to count (TNTC). Such contamination levels are referred to as "lawn growth." Under normal testing protocol, one pathogenic organism is tested at a time, each with a fresh purifying element. For this test, however, the laboratory was directed to mix together a soup of three separate pathogenic "lawn growth" cultures. Tested under this extreme contamination level, absolutely no pathogens were able to make it through the purification elements. The laboratory then incubated the water, and nothing grew. When the effluent (filtered water) was viewed under an electron microscope not even inviable (dead) microbes were detectable -- nothing was present but pure H2O. Furthermore, contaminants reduced to below-detectable-limits include Trihalomethanes, Radon 222, and volatile organic compounds including Benzene, 2,4-D, Heptachlor, MTBE, Styrene, Tetrachloroethylene and Toulene, among many others.
