DEFINITION
Classification: 239/51.5
(under subclass 44) Apparatus comprising an encasing means for the porous or absorbant element including a wall spaced from said element, the wall having a plurality of apertures or perforations.
(1) Note. The wall or encasing means can be merely a screen; however, a screen wire support is not included under this definition if it is contiguous with the porous or absorbent element. It is necessary for diffusion to occur into the space between the porous element and the apertured wall for a device to qualify under this definition.
