German term or phrase: Ansatz/Ansatzmenge

I'm translating empty forms having to do with manufacturing injectables in ampoules, so there's not much to go by. What I have is:

"Tabelle für Ansatzmengen in Liter":

And below, 3 x "Abfüllmenge" (Sollmenge, Maximalee theor. Abfüllmenge & Minimale theor. Abfüllmenge).

What is confusing me now is an earlier title, "Ansatz Emulsionsanlage". Do these all refer to batches, or does any reference have to do with the ampoules?

Thanks, everyone. Substitution of the first "Ansatz" with "Ansatzmenge" in this sense certainly gave more logic to my context.
