* By default the dry pumping system is supplied with the additional gas ballast which is switched off. This additional gas ballast can be enabled in software
using an optional PDT.
† The dry pumping systems in a standard configuration must run with a seal purge. If the application requires removal of a seal purge, consult our
application specialist.
