At the lock is a pumping station with two drainage works with two pumps. As long as the Maas is lower than the inside of the lock, it has a lifting effect. If the Meuse is higher, the pump can maintain the channel.

There is a rest area near the lock, we took a break here and were able to watch the lock in operation.
