Just purchased a used cdl hobby 200 and new filters does anyone know the flow direction for installing the filters?I put them in with the top cylinder flowing towards the end and the bottom flowing away but want to be sure. I’d hate to ruin $750 worth of filters

Here (https://www.cdlusa.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Manuel-81125-81250_eng-CA-REV-01022019.pdf)'s a link to CDL's manual - maybe it's in there?

We were told the direction of the membrane itself was not as critical as it needs to be orientated the same every time it is installed. The cups are what is critical. I don't recall off the top of my head which way they are. I know the manual can sound a little confusing or seems to be lacking in this area. Read the section about cup orientation a couple times.
I am making a trip to our CDL dealer in the morning and will double check the orientation of the membranes and cups. They have been very helpful in the past to us.

I have the cups oriented correctly but not sure the flow directions of the filters. There must be a proper direction since it’s printed on the filters that say say cdl.

I’m having the same issue I installed both of mine w arrows facing the U-coupler that u do not take apart.W the cups facing away from that. It is working for me. Flow is slow I’m acid washing the membranes this weekend to hopefully fix that.
ARROW POINTED UP WHEN INSTALLED. WITH THE UCUP ORING ON THE BOTTOM WITH THE WIDER PART FACING DOWN. MUCH EASY THAN RUNNING A clear press...........................
