In-line cartridge filter

I agree - not a cartridge filter (whether in-line or not). The Filtomat brochure describes the operation, which is a self-cleaning system - automatically back-flushing the filter element when it becomes clogged. There is no replaceable cartridge.

This is not a cartridge filter. And, it is not for water.

Cheers.

Partly right, the filter medium is replaceable though not necessary in normal operation. _{Unless this designation raises inopportune exception I'd grin and bare it}

It is in line & it does have a cartridge element [filter basket].

The filter is set up to be serviced without interrupting service.

the filter element is not normally replaced, but cleaned [scale removed].

This is not an inline cartridge filter. An inline cartridge filter uses a cartridge not a wire screen. Replacement of such cartridges is extremely easy and the cartridges are usually disposed of, not cleaned, but this is not to say that some people don't try to clean and reuse them. The ones that I have come in contact with can be used for more than water, including some very high viscosity stuff, depending on which filter element you choose.

It is a filter, probably "in-line" but not a cartridge.

Voting is now closed.

Unfortunately, you have to think like a Canadian Customs agent. It's a filter so it fits the definition.
