Go Berkey Kit - Gravity Water Purifier with 1 Black Berkey Purification Element, Sport Berkey Portable Water Purifier Bottle, Black Berkey Primer and Vinyl Carry Case
The all new Go Berkey® Kit is the designed for backpacking, hiking, camping, college students, emergency preparedness, world travel (business or vacation), on your desk at work or hundreds of other activities. The generic Sport Berkey® portable water purifier bottle is perfect for when you are out on the trail and the Go Berkey® system works great for passive purification back at the campsite, lodge, etc. The Generic Sport Berkey® portable water purifier bottle can also be used to prime the Black Berkey® Purification Element when water pressure isn't available.
As with all our water purification systems, the Go Berkey® Kit is a must 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 Go Berkey® system removes viruses, pathogenic bacteria, cysts and parasites entirely and extracts harmful chemicals such as herbicides, pesticides, VOCs, organic solvents, radon 222 and trihalomethanes. It also reduces unhealthy heavy metals such as lead and mercury. This system is so powerful it can remove red food coloring from water without removing the beneficial minerals your body needs. Virtually no other system can duplicate this performance.
Constructed of highly polished AISI 304 stainless steel the Go Berkey® Kit comes complete with one Black Berkey® Purification Element, one Sport Berkey® portable water purifier bottle, Black Berkey Primer and a vinyl carry case This system has a storage capacity of about 1 quart (.95 liters) and when in use it stands 14” in height with a diameter of 4”. The upper chamber nests within the lower chamber for transport and stands only 10” in height. Weighing a mere 2.4 pounds the Go Berkey® Kit is lightweight, easily transportable and perfect for active people on the go.
Configured with one Black Berkey® purification elements the system will purify up to 1 Gallon (3.8 liters) per hour; that's 24 gallons per day if the system is refilled continuously.*.

Concerned about Fluroide
or Arsenic in your water?
A special filtering element is available for reducing Fluoride and Arsenic in your water with our PF-2 post reduction elements.
No need for expensive disposable filters. Black Berkey purification elements are re-cleanable. When the flow rate decreases simply brush the Black Berkey purification elements with a ScotchBrite pad under running water, reinstall and your system is again ready to purify water. What's more, the unique Black Berkey purification elements are self-sterilizing.
The Black Berkey purification element formulation has been tested by State & EPA accredited laboratories to exceed EPA & ANSI/NSF (Std. 53) protocol.
Berkey Systems are the World's Most
Powerful and Economical Personal Water purification Systems Providing
Reliable and User-friendly Water Purification in Both Normal and Hostile
Filtration Environments.
Moreover, Berkey systems are capable of
purifying 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. So powerful, this system is able to
remove red food coloring from water without removing the beneficial minerals
your body needs. Perfect for everyday use and a must in hostile environments
where electricity, water pressure or treated water may not be
available.
Berkey Natural Purification Systems are
the ultimate in water purification and the ideal personal protection and
traveling companions. Used worldwide for normal, hostile and emergency
environments to provide the purest, sparkling clean water possible...
For generations, health-conscious people around the world
have recognized that the foundation to a healthy life and healthy body is clean,
fresh drinking water. This important essential element is the basis for enjoying
your longest, healthiest life. No amount of vitamins or supplements can
substitute for the vital life-sustaining properties found in nourishing,
healthful drinking water. It is truly the foundation of life.
Unfortunately, securing your access to good tasting,
sparkling, wholesome drinking water can be harder than you might expect. Water
is often laced with chlorine, lead, high levels of harmful bacteria, and other
unwanted chemicals and contaminants. Frequently these produce unpleasant tastes
and odors. Even bottled water can contain these same contaminants, and moreover
it is very expensive. Other filtration systems are inferior. Most do not remove
pathogenic bacteria and many remove the beneficial minerals that your body
needs.
Perhaps that's why Berkey systems have
long been recognized as the world's ultimate in water purification. This
simple, highly effective method of using gravity was developed almost 200 years
ago... yet it still produces some of the finest, most healthful drinking water
available.
How Berkey Natural Water Purifiers
Operate
To use, water is poured into the upper chamber. Gravity draws
this water through the exclusive purification elements where contaminates are
captured on and within theses micro-porous elements and are separated from the
water. The purified water then collects in the lower chamber where it can be
drawn through the spigot. What's more, Berkey elements are
re-cleanable and can be used over and over again. Berkey Really is the Ultimate in Water
Purification
The Berkey Secret
Have you ever wondered how Berkey purification systems remove
pathogenic bacteria, cysts and parasites while extracting chemicals including
herbicides, pesticides, organic solvents, VOCs, detergents, cloudiness, silt,
sediment, foul tastes and odors? Or, how Berkey systems are able to
reduce heavy metals such as cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, mercury, aluminum
and other dangerous heavy metals without removing the healthful and beneficial
minerals that your body needs?
And finally, how is this system able to
remove red food coloring from water without removing the beneficial minerals
your body needs?
The unique Berkey design combines the
age-old process of micro-porous filtration coupled with modern state-of-the-art
technology and the highest quality materials to bring you the finest water
purification system available anywhere. The micro-pores within the
self-sterilizing and re-cleanable Black Berkey purification elements
are so small that pathogenic bacteria are simply not able to pass through them.
The media within the elements remove contaminants by a surface phenomenon
known as "adsorption" which results from the molecular attraction of substances
to the surface of the media. The exclusive purification elements are also
impregnated with proprietary "absorbing" media that promote IONIC "absorption"
of pollutants within the micro-porous elements.
Another reason Berkey systems are so effective in removing
contaminants from water is the extremely long "contact period". Other
filtration systems rely on water pressure that forces water molecules through
the filter elements at 60-90 PSI. These water molecules come into contact with
the filter media for a mere fraction of a second. By comparison water
molecules, passing through the "Tortuous Path" structure of the Black
Berkey purification elements, are drawn gently by gravity and stay
in contact with the media for a long period of time. This allows the filter
media to be more efficient in capturing contaminates. For example, if you were
to hurl 100 steel ball bearings at a large magnet, some would stick but most
would bounce off. However, if you were to walk over and gently place the ball
bearings on the magnet most, if not all, would adhere to the magnet.
Berkey systems fully utilize this principle.
This advanced technology was developed, refined, and proven through years
of diligent, investigative research and testing performed by water purification
specialists, researchers and engineers. The flow rate or time of exposure
through the exclusive Black Berkey purification elements has been calculated to
yield the greatest volume removal of toxic chemicals and pathogenic bacteria
found in nature and caused by pollution from industry and agriculture.
