oil mist remover Explanation: When operating the pump without an oil mist remover, run the exhaust line outside or into another room. Notes: Remover is really too general - if you can figure out how the "-abschneider" works, then a more specific technical term is in order. [email protected] |

Oil spray reduction unit (or oil spray block) Explanation: Although Ölnebel is literally oil mist and is often used as such in mechanics, oil spray seems more appropriate in this case (and is more often used in the context of food). Above suggestion is derived from Ernst, WB der industriellen Technik. Hope this helps, Will |

Addendum Explanation: A note on my last answer. Forget the bit about the food context. Although I stand by my suggestion, its use in the context of food isn't really an argument for using it in this context. What seems clear to me, though, is that if you need to blow the oil outside when you don't have a blocker, you obviously have more than just mist. Sorry about being unclear before. HTH, Will |

Oelnebel etc. Explanation: I think you have copied this wrong. I think you mean 'Oelnebelabscheider', i.e. no 'n' after the 'sch'. Right? If this is so, it's an 'oil-mist separator' Martin F. Slater CH-6005 Luzern |
