7. Connect the cable from the new leak sensor (P/N 058053) to the ICS-2100

cable.

component panel opening and fingertighten the screw.

9. Make sure the leak sensor does not touch the bottom of the drip tray.

5.16 Priming the Pump

1. Verify that the eluent reservoir is filled, the reservoir cap is installed and hand

tightened, and the liquid line from the ICS-2100 to the reservoir cap is
connected.

2. Verify that the waste lines are directed to a waste container.

3. The priming procedure consists of two parts:

Priming the eluent lines with a syringe (see

Section 5.16.1

). Perform this

procedure at initial installation, after changing eluents, or when eluent
lines are empty.

Priming the pump heads with the Prime button (see

Section 5.16.2

).

Perform this procedure after the eluent lines are primed.

5.16.1 Priming the Eluent Lines with a Syringe

NOTE Prime the eluent lines after initial installation, after

changing eluents, or when eluent lines are empty.

1. Verify that the pump is turned off.

2. Connect a 10 mL syringe (P/N 054578) to the priming valve port on

the primary pump head (see

Figure 5-31

).
