I have this carrier as well, but it has two surfaces (on one glass). As far as
I understand, the old Ic had only one surface to the outside.

However, I don't have dust problems since I use a vacuum cleaner regularly
before (and sometimes even after) I put the negatives in the carrier. It is
much better than blowing the dust to some other place in the dark room.
