German term or phrase: Stromabnehmerzylinder
Sorry, I don't have much context, just a technical data sheet:

"Anschlussplatte mit integriertem Schnellentlüfter

Besonderheit: Diese Einheit ersetzt eine Anschlussplatte ohne Schnellentlüfter plus einen Schnellentlüfter der fliegend im Leitungsnetz hängt. Aus Platzgründen war die Frühere Ausführung nicht mehr möglich.

Einsatzgebiet:
Druckversorgung von Stromabnehmerzylindern bei U-Bahnen

Any help much appreciated!

Note: In pneumatics/hydraulics, an \"Anschlußplatte\" is called a \"sub-base\" (at least by FESTO Pneumatic).
