1 These elements are bagged dry before shipping.
2 Internal diameter unless specified OD (outside diameter).
3 The element diameter (dimension C) is designed for optimum performance in GE
Water & Process Technologies pressure vessels. Other pressure vessel dimension
and tolerance may result in excessive bypass and loss of capacity.
