line filter orientation

Hello folks.

I use a line filter between my HV-xformer
and the power controller ( wanted to keep
the nasty stuff out as soon as possible )
Everything works fine for ober a year now,
but yesterday I became unsure about the way
I installed the filter.
Here is a drawing of what is printed on the filter:

BTW the filter is a Siemenst SiFi-B
B84112-B-B120
25/085/21
20A 110/230V 50Hz

The load end is connected to the HV transformer,
the "line" side goes to the variac going to mains.
I wonder, if this is right or wrong as I don't know
if this filter was originally intended to keep noise out
from sensitive equipment or keep it in from noise-
producing equipment...
I am sure someone on the list knows better ;-)
