The invention relates to a flushing device for a sealing system on a housing element with a sealing surface and an associated closing element with a radially outer elastic seal, comprising at least one source for a flushing medium, an annular channel arranged in the housing element, and an annular gap, out of which the flushing medium can pass, the annular gap being closed by the radially outer elastic seal in the closed position of the closing element. At least one further closable outlet is provided for the flushing medium on the annular channel. At least one side of the opening of the annular gap is of undulating or serrated design. In accordance with the process for using the flushing device, with the closing element closed and the annular gap closed and with the further outlet open, a flushing medium is let into the annular channel from the source and is let out via the further outlet.
