THAT IS NOT HAPPENING AGAIN !!!
Drain the canister then install a 20 0z plastic bottle in the filters place.
Remove label.

Wonder how much pressure you had on that line ???
The filter is rated to 125 psi complete unit. Problem is lack of locking the bowl to the housing. An old wrench set in a anti rotation homemade bracket would cure the unscrewing problem.

That's what I did, to give me piece of mind until I get it removed.

I am guessing you are right about the quality of the canister,,,
But it seam like it would take a lot of pressure to break one ???
