The opinion of Aventure Nordique
The Platypus Quickdraw 3L Gravity Filter System is a filtration system comprising the Quickdraw water filter, a 3-litre Dirty water bag and a quick-connect hose.
The Quickdraw water filter has a 0.2 micron hollow fibre filter membrane. It eliminates 99.9999% of bacteria and 99.9% of protozoa, with a flow rate of up to 3 litres of water per minute. Compact, lightweight and robust, it fits in your pocket and weighs just 68 grams. It has a robust, non-slip thermoplastic polyurethane outer layer and a polyethylene inner layer with no aftertaste.
The teat is covered by a protective DrinkCap for direct drinking, and the ConnectCap adaptor allows it to be connected to a flask, water bottle or hose. On the back, the Quickdraw filter has double internal and external threads. It is compatible with Platypus water bottles, pouches and water tanks (Platy Hoser, Platy 1 and 3 litres, Platy SoftBottle and Platy Water Tank), as well as conventional water bottles with a 28-mm neck (Smartwater type).
Cleaning is simple and easy. Simply shake the filter against a water bottle or run water against the filter.
It comes with a 3-litre Platypus Dirty water bag. It's compact, lightweight and sturdy, thanks to its double-walled construction. The hose has a Playptus quick-release coupling at the end to connect it to the Big Zip Evo water tank, and an adaptor for different water bottles (Nalgene) and tanks (MSR DromLite and Dromeadry).
