German to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Medical: Pharmaceuticals | | German term or phrase: Blas-schleuse | I'm at the end of a long translation on cross-contamination in the pharmaceutical industry. I now have a floor plan/layout to translate with labels of names of rooms and areas e.g. mixing room, tablet production, weighing etc.
There is one area labelled Blas-schleuse (hyphen may me for space). There are other 'locks' i.e. machine lock, but I'm stuck on this one. I though of 'air lock' but that is 'Luft schleuse' I think.
Any help appreciated.
Sorry no more context as not within a sentence, just a label. |

| | blow-through lock | Explanation:
The first link inserted below contains the German expression, the second one is the English version of the same site. I think "blow-through lock" is the correct equivalent for the German "Blasschleuse". Hope this is helpful! |
