Tech/Engineering - Engineering: Industrial / Brandbekämpfung | | English term or phrase: acetylene trailer | Description: Acetylene trailers (2 x 800 kg each one)
Location: plant 56
Protection: water spray system
Wie könnte man in diesem Fall "trailers" übersetzen? |
| | Clarification request(s) and responseGela54: 2:05pm Jun 4, 2006: Wäre "Container" vielleicht auch eine Möglichkeit? Ich denke, es handelt sich um eine stationäre Anlage (ich kann mir auch nicht vorstellen, dass ein Arbeiter 800 kg nur mit einer Karre vom Platz bewegt).

| | Anhänger, Karre | Explanation:
Depends on whether they are designed to be pulled by a vehicle i.e. fitted with a tow-hook, or by a welder and just fitted with a handle. Just a platform trolley in the one case, or a proper trailer in the other, designed for transporting acetylene around from one welding site to another.

Have a look at P.2, para. 3.3.5 for a definition of this:

Looks like they are towed by a vehicle, therefore an "Anhänger"...

I doubt that they would describe it as a "trailer" if it were stationary. |
