I've just purchased a Worcester Bosch 10l expansion vessel for my WB greenstar boiler as the internal vessel membrane has gone (pressure dropping on boiler and water coming out the schrader valve on the expansion vessel)

I won't risk trying to swap out the internal one but fitting an external one seems fairly straightforward.
The plan is to "T" into the CH return using a 22mm to 15mm tee, then running some 15mm pipe up to the new 10l expansion vessel mounted on the wall about a foot from the boiler.
What I don't get is with this particular expansion vessel the big white sticker on it kind of suggests that the schrader valve will be at the bottom half of the vessel and the 3/4 connector will be at the top?
Is that right? I would've thought the schrader should be at the top?
I thought maybe it was just my one but every google image I find also seems to show it with the schrader valve at the bottom?
Os it the right way up or not? Or doesn't it matter?
I thought maybe it might need to be mounted horizontally but the wall mount bracket that comes with it doesn't look like it would work in that orientation
