At the outlet terminal (24), an especially T-shaped or Y-shaped connector (26) is attached. The connector (26) comprises two entrance ports (32, 24) and an exit (40), wherein the exit (40) is in communication with the vacuum source (44) and a first entrance port is in communication with the firing chamber (12), and especially is flange-mounted at the outlet terminal (24) thereof, and a second entrance port (34) is in communication with ambient air.
