Sweetwater ViralStop™
Sweetwater ViralStop is a chlorine-based purifier solution that
provides simple and fast virus protection. Add 5 drops of ViralStop™
to each liter of filtered water, mix for at least 10 seconds, and wait 5
minutes. ViralStop™ comes in a spill-proof dispenser bottle for accurate
measuring.
ViralStop™ contains a special grade of Chlorine Solution, which prolongs
shelf life and is EPA registered. Sweetwater has tuned the ViralStop™
solution for the best possible combination of performance (fewer drops per
liter = less weight to carry) and shelf life.
With ViralStop™ as a key component, the ™ Purifier System
meets stringent EPA standards and inactivates 99.99% of waterborn viruses
and eliminates over 99.9999% of all waterborne bacteria and 99.9% of common
protozoan parasites such as Giardia and Cryptosporidium.
Attention: ViralStop purifier solution has only been tested and approved
for use with the microfilter. Sweetwater does not recommend using
ViralStop with any other filter.
