LifeSaver Wayfarer

Born from the spirit of adventure, the LifeSaver Wayfarer™ is made compact and rugged to safely drink dirty, microbiologically contaminated water.

Feel the freedom to go further with a pocket-sized water purifier that can purify up to 5,000 liters of clean, safe drinking water.

The LifeSaver Wayfarer is a microbiological water filter that uses ultrafiltration technology to filter viruses, bacteria, cysts and parasites from contaminated water sources. LifeSaver technology filters out bacteria to a minimum of Log 6 (99.9999%), viruses to a minimum of Log 5 (99.999%) and cysts to a minimum of Log 4 (99.99%) as specified by NSF Protocol 231 , based on recommendations from the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

The Lifesaver Wayfarer is a 2-stage water purification system:

Stage One
The 1st stage is the replaceable ultra-filtration element that can purify up to about 5,000 liters of water from bacteria, protozoa, micro-plastics and viruses. Thanks to the FailSafe function, the filter stops automatically once it has reached its lifespan. The filter element is then very easy to replace.

Stage Two
The 2nd stage is filtration with the replaceable activated carbon filter that reduces pesticides, chemicals and organic substances in the water and improves the smell and taste of the water. The activated carbon filter is not necessary to obtain safe drinking water free of micro-biological contamination. But it is recommended to improve the taste and smell and in case of possible presence of chlorine or pesticides.
