According to the configuration of your TRACE 1600 or TRACE 1610 GC, a dummy
module is present in the free site where the detector module is not installed.
If no dummy module is present, and no vacant module position is present on either the
TRACE 1600 or TRACE 1610 GC or on the optional gas valve oven (if you have one), you
must take one of the existing and installed modules off in order to install the NoVent
Microfluidics.
