Description

The Katadyn BeFree AC Carbon Replacement is a pack of three activated carbon inserts for the BeFree AC soft flask filter, each rated for up to 200 litres depending on water quality. The Katadyn BeFree AC Carbon Replacement sits under the flip cap as the second stage of the filter, improving the taste and smell of your water, and suits the 0.5 L and 1.0 L BeFree AC.

What it is

A three-pack of the activated carbon pieces for the BeFree AC. Each one drops into the holder beneath the flip cap, above the membrane, and handles taste and odour while the membrane underneath does the filtering.

Who it's for

BeFree AC owners who like their water to taste clean, whether that is a creek with an off taste in the Gold Coast hinterland or a town tap on the way to the trailhead. Drinking straight from a clear alpine stream that already tastes sweet? Leave the carbon out and save it for when the water needs it.

Key details

Three activated carbon inserts in the pack
Up to 200 litres per piece, depending on water quality
Change it at 200 litres or three months after first use, whichever comes first
Fits: BeFree AC Filter 0.5 L slate blue, 1.0 L slate blue and 1.0 L black

Katadyn say the carbon can be replaced easily: unscrew the flip cap, sit a fresh insert in the holder and screw the cap back on. Run a litre through and tip it out before you drink, as you would any time the carbon holder has been opened.

Looking after it

Take the carbon out before you disinfect the BeFree, and let everything air dry before reassembling. Katadyn note the carbon limits the flow on purpose, to suit taste and odour treatment, so expect a slower flow with it fitted.
