Depending on the selection, the various lines of the system are flushed.

To fill the evaporation flask, see also section „Commissioning" on page 100.
Select a vacuum value adequate for the solvent and set the hyste-
resis to 50 mbar.
A large pressure range is passed through by the large hysteresis.
All glass parts are first wetted, after which drops are formed, which
then run off.
As a result, the glass parts in the distillate area are cleaned within a
short time.
