German term or phrase:Rührdrucknutsche
Hallo ProZ-Profis!
This term appears in the following context:
Rezept Y wird eingesetzt, wenn das Filtrat aus der Faktor IX-Adsorption (Behälter 111/Rührdrucknutsche 000) als Ausgangsmaterial übernommen wird.
This is from an SOP for the precipitation and filtration of various factors. Unfortunately the term only occurs once in the document and no further context is provided.
After an exhaustive internet search about the best I can come up with is "agitated nutsche filter". However, "nutsche" does not sound like English to me and Ernst calls a "Nutsche" a suction filter or strainer. I am a little suspicious of "agitated nutsche filter" because most of the websites where this term shows up feature a nearly identical and somewhat questionably written definition. In addition, a lot of these websites are foreign (i.e. Asian, German-language etc.) and contain spelling errors and other clues that they were not written by native English speakers. Could it be that the term "Rührdrucknutsche" was incorrectly translated as "agitated nutsche filter" at some point and has simply been picked up by other translators/websites? In today's cyberspace of rapidly self-multiplying errors it certainly wouldn't be the first time :)
Could someone with EXPERIENCE in this field kindly clue me in to what we call this in English? I am willing to accept "agitated nutsche filter" but I need confirmation from some native English-speaking experts first.
Vielen Dank im Voraus,
t r e y
P.S. This is all the context I have. If anything about the style/substance of this query is displeasing to you, then kindly move on to the next one. Thank you so much in advance!
Explanation: The Agitated Nutsche filter is a Nutsche type filter designed to separate solids from liquids, it is totally enclosed and is normally operated under pressure [...]
Weshalb man wahrscheinlich auf die explizite Nennung des pressure hier verzichten könnte.
could it be "Netzsche" filter? there is a picture of the machine in question; not sure in what context this filter is being used; as you stated, many spelling errors can multiply in the internet; but I apologize in case I am on the wrong track here

Classic kit: Büchner's funnel
But his funnel had taken on a life of its own. A leading lab supplier, Martini and Kaehler sold them until 1920, when the patent expired. In Germany, it soon became known as a 'Nutsche', an onomatopoeic name derived from the sucking sound - like the word 'lutscher', for a boiled sweet. Scaled up to several metres across, Nutsche filters became the workhorses of industrial filtration. But back in our noisy labs, Büchner's funnels - now in plastic, ceramic or glass - laugh with us every time we isolate a new compound. http://www.rsc.org/chemistryworld/Issues/2009/November/Buchn...

The first development of the nutsche filter was the agitated pressure nutsche filter. http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=pp_53D5GejYC&pg=PA89&dq=A...
