PATH and MSR have developed a device that uses a 12-volt battery to convert a handful of salt and a small amount of water into enough chlorine to treat up to 55 gallons of water. The MSR SE200™ is inexpensive, portable, and produces chlorine onsite and on demand, addressing sourcing and transportation challenges.

During the recent cholera outbreak, Zambian Ministry of Health officials immediately recognized the value and potential impact of the MSR SE200™. They are eager to deploy the device to key health facilities and water sites throughout the country. PATH has worked alongside Zambia’s Ministry of Health since 2005 to solve some of the country’s most pressing health challenges and is a trusted partner.
