English term or phrase: put up(s)
The proper size and put-up for the application minimizes wiper and solvent usage

Different sizes and put-ups available

From catalogue, items of product descriptions. The catalogue describes wipers for cleaning, which may be used in optics, pharmacy, semi-conductors, infectious materials, contamination, etc. "Put-up(s)" Means some feature of the wiper and as it has function of a noun, I cannot find it in any dictionary or trace its correct meaning. There are no more occurences of this expression in the catalogue.

Explanation:
I have never heard or read the hyphonated noun "put-up". But it seems that in the combination with "sizes" "put-up" really means "packaging". Not so much what color the container is, but the "arrangement", i.e. how many of an item are inside, etc.

... and yes, it is \"hyphenated\", not \"hyphonated\" ... :-)

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  lingua chick: Although I have never heard nor seen "put-up" being used in this particular context, I think "baleni" is correct. One of the meanings of the verb "to put up" is to accommodate, as in "I will put you up for a couple of nights, no problem".

Explanation:
I think any of three terms can be used.
In fact, it is a strange term.
But the available description allows to deduce it is an attachment which controls speed of delivery of solvent to wiper because a wiper needs water, or solvent in general, for proper operation. It probably delives solvent dropwise.
The term "put up" means in medicine to arrange a drip for a patient (speed of aministration of infusion - number of drops per minute).
