The SteriPEN^® FitsAll Filter is designed to remove large particulate matter from drinking water. The FitsAll Filter fits snugly in a variety of bottles— from narrow-mouth bottles such as soft-drink-type beverage bottles to wide-mouth bottles such as Nalgene^® bottles.

The FitsAll Filter can filter water via two methods: POUR-THROUGH and IMMERSION.

The FitsAll Filter also serves as an adapter for use with SteriPEN^® Journey^LCD and SteriPEN^® Classic water purifiers. The FitsAll Cup is designed to fit on the rim of Klean Kanteen^® and Gatorade^®-type bottles and it also fits tightly inside wide-mouth water bottles.

POUR-THROUGH filtering for (A) narrow-mouth bottles or (B) wide-mouth bottles (mouth size 20mm (0.79in.) to 55mm (2.16 in.)).

Warnings for Safe Use

• This FitsAll Filter is designed to remove large particulate matter from water. It will not remove microbiological or chemical contaminants.
• The Funnel must be removed from the Cup in order to purify water with the SteriPEN^® Journey^LCD or Classic.
• Do not use this FitsAll Filter with liquids other than water.
• In some cases where fine sediment is present, water may be collected in a large container and clarified by allowing sediment to settle. When particulates are very small, this FitsAll Filter may be ineffective in clarifying water. If clear water cannot be obtained, see SteriPEN^® water purifier's user guide for how to treat turbid or cloudy water.
• If the FitsAll Filter and bottle are immersed into water, wipe bottle, especially drinking surface, dry prior to using.
