    8 Maintenance 8.1 Bakeout The valve is baked in order for its inner parts to be degassed. Undesirable gases can thus be pumped. The pumping time is reduced and the final pressure is reached faster. It is good practice to bake out valves after cleaning (→ 23) and when their inner parts have been exposed to atmosphere for some time, e.g.
