1.3 Product Descriptions
1.3.1 Side Access Housing (SAH): Each (SAH) will be received
individually mounted on a shipping pallet and wrapped in plastic for
protection during shipping. Depending on the size and complexity
of the SAH it may ship in sections on multiple pallets. Refer to the
product drawings submitted on the order for details. The SAH can
be supplied in three styles, Type MD, Type HD or Type CG,
depending on the style of SAAF Cassette gas-phase chemical filter
that it is intended to accommodate (see 1.3.2 for details). Different
internal support tracks and track spacings will be provided
depending on the type of cassette to be used.
Any particular filter system will normally be assembled using only
one type of cassette, Type MD, Type HD, or Type CG. Cassettes will
almost never be mixed in a single-filter system. Different types of
cassettes are not interchangeable within any particular filter bank.

cassettes are shipped in cartons and plastic bags. The carton shown
below contains a single 6" high x 24" wide x 18" deep Type MD
