If the pump is expected to be stopped for a lengthy period, or in any
case if it has pumped in large amounts of vapors, it is good practice
to run it with the gas ballast open and the inlet line closed for a few
minutes before switching off in order to limit the risk of corrosion or
scaling due to pollution of the oil by condensed vapors.
