Survivor Filter Pro Pump Product Guide
PRO TIP: The PRO is a precision device. For trouble-free performance, prime the PRO before first use, or when taking it out after long-term storage. Priming will prevent damage from any impurities flowing into the pump.
Cleaning the Filters
Using the Syringe
Fill the syringe with clean water, or 1:1 vinegar to water ratio, and attach it to the Pre-Filter or Ultra Filter tip. Push the clean water from the syringe through. Repeat as necessary to dislodge any trapped particles.
Carbon Filter Cleaning
Soak the Carbon Filter in clean water for 15 minutes. After soaking, remove the filter from the clean water and shake out the filter to remove any excess water. Never clean your carbon filter with anything except water.
Always Air Dry the Filter
Remember to air dry your filters for a minimum of 24 hours after cleaning to prevent any moisture from accumulating during storage.
Clean after every use
Cleaning the three filters after each trip greatly extends their life.

TIPS AND TRICKS
All of our filter systems are made to filter fresh water sources, or municipal tap water only. Some examples of fresh water sources include: lakes, rivers, streams and ponds.
Storing away? Disassemble completely and air dry for a minimum of 24 hours, then store away. Perform a vigorous shake test to see if there is any excess water left inside.
Heavy polluted water or water with a high concentration of silt will clog the Pre-Filter more quickly. To prevent heavy sediment from clogging the Pre-Filter: collect water from the source in a large container and let it sit for 10 minutes to allow the mud to separate. Then, filter as normal.
If you’re looking to test how well our filter works on pathogens, we recommend testing on water from the outdoors that hasn’t been treated with chlorine (ie. tap water). Pre-test the dirty water, run the water through the filter, then test again to see a dramatic TDS drop.
Ensure you keep your filter insulated in your jacket or sleeping bag in sub-zero temperatures. Be sure your filter is also completely free of water
before storing away. If you ensure
the filters are completely free of water, then the risk of damaging the filters are much lower.
Tested in the USA to NSF/ANSI standards to filter: bacteria, staph, parasites and virus to 99.999%. It also significantly reduces heavy metals, making it safe to use in most natural bodies of water throughout the world.
