Glossary
Filtration speed
The amount of water that the filter is able to pass through itself per unit of time (of course, effectively purified in the process); usually stated in liters per minute. This parameter is largely related to the type (see above): for example, in jugs, the filtration rate usually does not exceed 0.5 L per minute, while for main devices that supply entire apartments, a throughput of tens or even hundreds of liters is required.
Note that it does not always make sense to pursue a high filtration rate. After all, other things being equal, finer cleaning takes more time; accordingly, the faster the filter works, the higher the chance that the quality of such cleaning will be relatively low. And devices that purify water efficiently and quickly usually have an appropriate price. Therefore, it is worth considering the purpose of the filter and, on the basis of this, determine the balance between the filtration speed and its quality when choosing. It is also worth keeping in mind the conditions of use: for example, if you need to filter low-quality tap water for drinking, it is better to sacrifice speed in favor of efficiency.

Pump
The filter has its own pump. This feature is found mainly in two types of filters. The first is reverse osmosis systems (see above): the operation of such filtration requires high pressure, but it is not always achieved at the inlet, and a pump, usually electric, is provided to increase the pressure. The second option is tourist filters (see "Type"), where the pump is designed to draw water from natural reservoirs; they have to be pumped manually.
