Plasma gas purging begins as soon as GPU is allocated a value.
For safety reasons, plasma gas purging cannot be restarted until a new GPU value is
entered.
Important! Plasma gas purging is necessary above all where condensation forms after
the device has been left unused in a cold environment for a long time. Long hosepacks
are most affected.
The Setup menu makes it easy to adapt the parameters saved in the unit to different

- The plasma gas supply parameters are set in the Gas Setup.

plasma process.
