Upside down Runtal UHX radiator?

I have a silly question and rather than call up Runtal I thought of you guys.  Can you install a Runtal UHX-8-72 vertical radiator upside down?  If it’s on its own loop i assume it wouldn’t need a bleeder valve and the piping configuration on the runtal is in and out on the “bottom”. Piping is home run.

    I bet if you contact them you can order it with the supply tappings at the top rather than the bottom.

    Bleed it at the end of the return pipe of the home run. A webstone purge ball valve for example

    I dont see how a bleeder would work ir be needed on a down feed panel rad?
