Sorry, probably oversimplified there. You're right that the term condenser just refers to the element.

I had a very similar looking Samson condenser with that shape (grill on top with the bar splitting in half) and it had the element parallel to the body of the mic. So assuming it's similar to mine was, yes it'll probably work fine as mounted. But I'd bet if OP tilts it "upside down" and rotates 90deg one way or another (speaking into the grill, not the bar) they'd find much better signal/noise.
