Electronics / Elect Eng / viscosimètre
English term or phrase: booster (unit, pump, system)
Après le juridique, encore un peu de technique ;-)

Le mot "booster" peut avoir tellement de significations... j'ai trouvé système de refoulement pour booster unit... Est-ce bien la bonne signification? Voici un peu de contexte :

Fuel filters should be placed in the HFO supply to the booster.

Booster pump
There should be two booster pumps.
One active and the other one on standby

Start the booster pump in the fuel system and after appro. 15 minutes, close by-pass valve.

The heaters in the booster system are controlled by a viscosity controller.
