6. Pull the valve straight out from the
component panel and begin pulling
the attached cable out of the opening
in the panel.
7. The cable is connected to a
matching cable inside the Dionex
ICS-1100. Continue pulling until the
connectors for the two cables are
outside the panel (see Figure 5-19
).
Disconnect the cables.

8. Remove the mounting plate on the
old valve by unscrewing and
removing the two screws. Save the
screws.
9. Thread the cable from the new
eluent valve through the mounting
plate.
10. Attach the mounting plate to the
new valve using the screws
removed in Step 8
.

11. Connect the cable from the new valve (P/N 057945) to the Dionex ICS-1100
cable. Feed the cables back inside the Dionex ICS-1100.
