Steve,
I think my comment must not have been clear enough. When I said "Does
not come apart in service.", I was intending to commend it's capture
security as a structural unit. "In service" means when pressurized and
filtering, even partially clogged - as opposed to the plastic unit that
DOES come apart while "in service".
Sorry if that was not clear.
