Cartridge Filter is a guard filter.
If the guard is not there, it doe's mean that anything can enter into the system.
UF is a superior filter that takes care of algal bloom, bacteria, microorganisms, etc.
It is all an effective cost saving process design within technical acceptance.

I agree to what you say. For UF in upstream, at initial plant proving, commissioning stage, it is advisable to have a guard in-line strainer. Every time a plant re-starts after prolonged shutdown again the in line strainer elements can be re-used. Plug and play approach. Having said that, I would also like to emphasize on the issue of knowing your water source and its characteristics through out the the year, which would tell how elaborate the pretreatment system would be and how long it will used in all varying seasons. This could play an important role in life cycle cost analysis.
