uh??

hi Marc, where do you get that??

I think it is just the unit with the least possible chance for channeling: the only thing that can happen is that with heavy bumping the sorb would get more compacted towards the bottom of the scrubber!

remember in horizontal position the gasflow trough the scrubber is vertical!
