Tech/Engineering - Transport / Transportation / Shipping / Diesel Engine Service manual
French term or phrase: déporté
From the service manual: "Le retour des injecteurs est branché sur la canule double sapin du venturi. Il est déporté de la pompe et positionné à côté du rail. . ."

I could have ". . . offset from the pump. . ." but I'm not sure if this is the best phrase. I'd like other suggestions or insights. Thanks in advance

Yes, in the context I think "remote" is best - although "offset" is a candidate in general terms. Many thanks Kari and the others who participated.
