5.7.2 PACKING A MODULE SEPARATELY
If your instrument includes multiple modules, or if a module must be shipped separately (e.g. for
module maintenance service), it may be necessary to pack a module on its own. To pack a
module separately, proceed as follows:
1) Remove the module from the base unit per the instructions in section 2.6.2.
2) Carefully disconnect the piston/cylinder set from the module. Not all modules attach to the
piston/cylinder the same way. Refer to the module-appropriate instructions below to
complete this step.
