Nachtrag

Nach dem Einwand von Oktay Ardan bin auch ich davon überzeugt, dass es sich um eine Halterung handelt, die sich auf die Pumpe als *Gesamtheit* bezieht. Wie eine Google-Recherche ergab, werden Pumpenhalterungen im Englischen sehr häufig mit "pump brackets" bezeichnet und vorzugsweise zur Fixierung von *kleinen* Pumpen aller Art eingesetzt.

Da Art und Bauweise der "pump brackets" offenbar nicht eng definiert sind, halte ich die allgemeine Bezeichnung "~halterung" für besser als spezielle Formen wie z. B. "~bügel", "~winkel" oder "~klemme", zumal da auch der vorliegende Originaltext keine konkrete Aussage hierzu enthält. Gleichwohl ist der von jccantrell vorgeschlagene "Pumpenbügel" vom Prinzip her natürlich richtig.
