每天可以过滤/净化多少水?
过滤器和净化器的流速由多个变量共同决定:
- Head pressure (The distance from the top of the water to the filter)
- How clean the filter is
- The filter itself (there are slight variations between filters)The PointONE Filter with a 1 foot hose (Model SP180) attached to a standard five gallon bucket at sea level is capable of filtering up to 295 gallons (1117 liters) of water per day.
- If you increase the head pressure by either lengthening the hose, attaching the filter to a larger container like a 55 gallon drum, or constantly keep the bucket full so the top of the water is as high as possible, this will increase the flow rate.
- Tap Filter: up to 500 Gallons per day
我的小袋似乎在漏水(接缝处有洞),今后如何防止这种情况发生?
造成泄漏的通常不是滤袋,而是过滤器。要么是过滤器在第一次使用时没有完全湿透,要么是在过滤过程中对滤袋施加的压力过大。一定要慢慢地将水挤入过滤器,让过滤器纤维有时间完全浸润。最初的流速可能看起来很慢,但随着纤维变湿,流速会逐渐加快。反冲洗过程用注射器反冲洗过滤器(更好、更频繁)。您不能伤害过滤器纤维,因此在反冲洗过程中请用力。使用注射器时,动作不要太轻,这样只会形成阻力最小的路径,而不会将过滤器中可能滞留的微粒吹出。过滤器的使用不要将过滤器过度拧紧在滤袋上。过度拧紧会导致 O 形环嵌入螺纹或卡入袋口。如果 O 形环脱落,可能会导致密封不严,水可能会从过滤器底部漏出。请观看我们的 "挤压过滤器重要提示 "视频,以便更好地了解如何保养挤压袋。在您掌握力度和清洁的完美平衡之前,我们建议您在旅行时携带一个备用滤袋。虽然这些小袋坚固耐用,但并非坚不可摧。它们会因压力过大而撕裂。当水通过过滤器的速度过快或过滤器需要清洁时,就会出现这种情况,从而产生更大的阻力。不要用力挤压滤袋或拧滤袋。破损的滤袋不在保修范围内。

水龙头过滤器是家用和房车的主要选择。
Select 系列专为处理高度污染的水而设计。
灌装时,我应该把瓶盖整个取下来吗?
No. The silicon bottle is hard to reseal if you loosen the black reducer cap. This is why we recommend only filling through the smaller opening where the Micro Squeeze™ filter attaches. If you take the reducer cap off you will need to get it to seal again before using it. Without a good seal, unfiltered water can leak out and could contaminate your drinking water.
如何防止邮袋破裂?
Sawyer filters have very strong fibers (see Fiber Strength Study) and are capable of handling up to 20 PSI (Pounds Per Square Inch) of pressure. When clean, Sawyer Filters only need 1 to 2 PSI of pressure to flow freely. As the fibers collect particulates, the pressure to move water through will increase as the particulates create barriers to water flow.Sawyer pouches are designed to handle up to 7 PSI of pressure before bursting. This in most cases allows for a large amount of water to be used before filter cleaning is necessary. Therefore the pouches will not burst so long as the filters are reasonably clean. However most people are capable of generating much more than 7 PSI of pressure and so if the filter is not clean, the pouches are more likely to burst when squeezing too hard. The more particulates in the water the sooner a filter will clog and need to be cleaned.Sawyer’s new light weight soft pouches offer the same bursting strength of 7 PSI as the heavier legacy pouches. The new light weight pouches are just as strong as the thicker legacy pouches but are easier to squeeze because the softer material offers less resistance. With a lower pouch resistance the 7 PSI burst limit is reached more easily.To protect your pouch – maintain a clean filter and be aware of pressure build up against a dirty filter.

Does the Sawyer filter remove taste, chemicals and heavy metals from water? - Personal Water Bottle
The Sawyer filter removes taste that comes from bacteria, dirt, and green matter.
Chemicals
The Sawyer filter does NOT remove iron, sulfur, other chemicals, or simple compounds. Taste can be masked by using flavor additives like Gatorade or crystal light (filter needs to be cleaned immediately after using them).
Heavy Metals
The standard Sawyer filters are not made with charcoal. While other portable filters have charcoal, they lack in amount of media and adequate dwell time. Therefore, they only remove small amounts of heavy metals, pesticides, etc.

The included gauge does not fit my faucet, but the Tap Filter does. Is it safe to use? - Tap water filtration
Absolutely! If it is no additional trouble, please send us the specs on your tap so we can explore additional adapters as needed based on customer feedback. Just be sure to be mindful of the water pressure (<40 psi) to ensure that the fibers are not damaged.
氯菊酯会致癌吗?
没有流行病学证据表明氯菊酯会导致人类癌症。在美国环境保护局(EPA)批准公众将氯菊酯用作织物处理剂之前,对其进行了长达 15 年的测试和数百项毒性研究。在动物身上进行了七次终生研究(癌症测定)。环保局要求由独立专家组成的 FIFRA 科学顾问小组审查这些集体数据,并评估氯菊酯的致癌潜力。专家组得出结论"......根据所有的综合数据,氯菊酯的致癌可能性[产生肿瘤的可能性]非常小。人体内致癌的可能性极小"。美国陆军还委托美国国家科学院(NAS)进行独立审查,以确保氯菊酯对军事人员的安全性。关于菊酯的致癌性问题,美国国家科学院指出"因此,小组委员会得出结论,对 BDU(作战服)进行菊酯浸渍不会对战地或非战地军事人员或制衣工人造成严重的致癌风险"。
氯菊酯对臭虫有效吗?
通常建议使用区域性炸弹,对整个房间进行熏蒸,作为抵御臭虫的第一道防线。由于您在国外旅行时可能无法对酒店房间进行熏蒸(以免得罪当地人),因此以下使用氯菊酯的方法可能会对您有所帮助:刚到酒店时,用 0.5% 的 Sawyer 氯菊酯驱虫剂至少对床垫的上表面进行喷洒处理。首选氯菊酯泵式喷雾剂,因为它们在航空旅行中不受限制。在使用床垫之前,请将其晾干。睡觉时盖上干净的床单;不要直接睡在处理过的床垫上。如果您担心枕头,可以揭开枕头,用氯菊酯轻轻喷洒处理枕头,使用前重新盖上枕头。使用 0.5% 的氯菊酯喷雾剂作为表面杀虫剂,喷洒在房间周围的裂缝和缝隙中,并轻微喷洒在填充家具、地毯和睡房周围的其他织物上,因为这些地方可能藏有臭虫和其他爬行昆虫。
Is Sawyer Permethrin safe around cats?
Yes once the treatment has fully dried, Sawyer Permethrin treated clothing and gear is completely safe to use wear around cats. Concentrates and agricultural grade formulas pose a much higher threat than our pharmaceutical grade formula.
It is during the application process which cats need to be separated. Do not expose cats to wet permethrin as it affects their central nervous system. This is not true with dogs, horses, or cows. Cats can be around permethrin treated fabrics once the application has dried.
Will Sawyer Permethrin come out when hiking or swimming?
No, the amount of Sawyer Permethrin Fabric Insect Repellent that can come out via physical contact or water contact is indeterminately small once the treatment has fully dried and bonded with the fabric fibers with our pharmaceutical grade formula. This is not the case for other brand concentrates or agricultural grade formulas.
With the Sawyer formula, think of it like the dye in a t-shirt. It will slowly degrade via UV exposure or the heavy agitation of a washing machine but not be immediately noticeable. You can extend the performance of Sawyer Permethrin treatment fabrics by hand washing them or limiting UV exposure between uses.
Will DEET ruin my clothes or equipment? - Ultra Deet
Quite possibly. DEET should not damage cotton, wool, or nylon. Do not apply to or near acetate, rayon, spandex or other synthetics, furniture, plastic, watch crystals, leather and painted or varnished surfaces including automobiles. Be sure to read the labels, and if in doubt try a sample on an obscure surface area and check it after 24 hours of exposure to DEET.
Why was I told to “get at least 30% DEET” for malaria mosquitoes? - Maxi Deet
之所以告诉你 "至少要买含有 30% DEET 的产品",是因为根据以前的指导原则,这是正确的。简单地说,特定配方中的DEET比例越高,对昆虫的保护时间越长,效果越好。在 Sawyer 控释驱虫剂问世之前,我们一直推荐使用 Sawyer Maxi-DEET® 100% DEET 皮肤驱虫剂。人们常常混淆浓度和剂量。较低 "剂量 "的 100% DEET 或混合在控释乳液甚至标准乳液中的 DEET 比酒精喷雾剂效果更好。然而,真正的问题并不在于一开始使用多少 DEET,而是在任何时候(甚至几小时后)有多少有效成分 DEET 可以用来驱赶那些讨厌的蚊子。采用缓释技术的皮肤驱蚊剂--Sawyer 20% DEET 控释驱蚊剂使用亚微米封装技术来包裹 DEET。与其他配方相比,缓释技术可使驱虫剂在皮肤表面停留更长时间,是一种有效且持久的皮肤驱虫剂。这样可以减缓吸收,延长驱蚊效果。Sawyer 的控释驱虫剂配方就采用了这种技术,使用起来既有效又舒适。
Can I wear a repellent with a sunscreen? - Maxi Deet
可以。 我们建议您先涂抹防晒霜。舒适有效地涂抹防晒霜的诀窍是在早上涂抹,或者至少在日晒前 10 分钟涂抹,这样有助于防晒霜被皮肤完全吸收。我们的 SPF 30 防晒霜采用粘合基配方,因此非常透气,同时也非常有效。您可以在sawyer.com/sunscreen/网站上了解有关这种配方的更多信息。
Can I use Sawyer Controlled Release Insect Repellent Lotion with 20% DEET on my child? - Controlled Release Repellent
可以,根据产品使用说明,本产品可用于儿童。疾病预防控制中心指出"关于什么浓度的 DEET 对儿童是安全的,还没有明确的研究结果。目前还没有关于按照生产商建议使用 DEET 导致严重疾病的报道。建议成人和 2 个月以下的儿童使用浓度高达 50%的 DEET。较低浓度的避蚊胺效果不持久,只能提供短期保护,需要更频繁地重复使用。(www.cdc.gov)我们推荐使用 Sawyer 儿童控释驱蚊乳液。根据美国环保署认可的皮肤吸收研究,泽尔控释驱蚊水是目前唯一经证实可减少DEET吸收的注册配方。我们独有的低 DEET 吸收配方经证实每次使用可减少 67% 的 DEET!控释驱虫剂无味、无油脂,与防晒霜兼容。
Can I wear a repellent with a sunscreen? - Controlled Release Repellent

When should I re-apply a sunscreen? - Stay Put SPF
皮肤上面的防晒霜比皮肤下面的防晒霜需要更频繁地重新涂抹,但每种防晒霜的更换都取决于几个环境因素和防晒霜的质量。请记住以下影响防晒霜效果的因素:防晒霜类型:薄膜、蜡或粘合基底一天中的时间:日晒高峰期为上午 10:00 至下午 3:00:日晒前的皮肤:春季和初夏的皮肤比晒黑后的皮肤更容易受到伤害:鼻子、耳朵、前额、头顶、脚顶和肩部需要额外的防晒霜和注意事项,因为这些部位的皮肤保护层较少:高海拔地区:海拔 6,000 英尺以上会大大增加您暴露在阳光下的机会:低纬度地区:低纬度地区:离赤道越近,阳光强度越大。经常摩擦或冲洗:经常擦干毛巾或滑水比其他活动更快地去除防晒霜:大量出汗:可能会导致防晒霜迁移,尤其是皮肤上方的防晒霜:如果您所处的环境中存在上述几种情况,您可能需要考虑使用更高防晒指数的防晒霜,或更密切地监测您的皮肤,尤其是皮肤较薄的部位。如果您所处的环境中存在以上几种情况,那么您就真的需要密切关注自己的皮肤,并采取其他预防措施,如更多的防晒衣物、帽子,以及在高峰期远离阳光。

What SPF do I need? How much do I need for a trip? - Stay Put SPF
如果涂抹得当(每次全身涂抹 1 1/4 盎司),很少需要超过 SPF 15 的防晒指数。何时需要更多,请参阅下文。不过,大多数人只涂抹 FDA 推荐标准的一半。防晒指数为 SPF 15 的防晒霜只涂了一半,实际上只有 SPF 7,聊胜于无,但仍不是真正的防晒霜。如果你能约束自己涂抹适量的防晒霜,那么当防晒霜被皮肤完全吸收后,皮肤中的化学成分就会减少,从而使皮肤更容易呼吸。如果你实在不忍心涂抹,那就换成 SPF 30 的防晒霜吧,涂抹一半后,你的皮肤仍能得到 SPF 15 的有效保护。如果您对氧苯甲酮或二苯甲酮敏感,那就坚持使用 SPF 15 的防晒霜,因为这种防晒霜一般不含氧苯甲酮或二苯甲酮。在计划旅行时,以每人每天 1 1/4 盎司作为指导。如果您要晒黑皮肤,或通过穿衣服减少皮肤暴露,则应相应减少预计的需求量。请记住,浸湿的棉质衬衫只能提供相当于 SPF 值 4 到 8 的保护,因此,如果暴露在水中或汗水中,您可能需要在衬衫下面涂抹防晒霜。
