Portuguese term or phrase: caixa de tomada de agua e ralos
I am translating a cost estimate for repairing a ship damaged in an accident. One of the items involves scraping, washing, and sandblasting the "caixas de tomada de agua" and painting their "ralos."

DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION
The Mark II\'s compact design permits it to fit in narrow spaces. The body is light in weight, yet rigid. Both the water box body and inlet pipe are made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel. The inlet pipe is located inside the box leaving the outside free of obstructions and preventing foreign matter from collecting and dropping onto the sheet. The pipe is fed from either or both ends with flow control valves positioned across the box. The pipe is easily removed, and the plugs at either end can be taken out for cleaning. The drain trough is an integral part of the box\'s body as it contributes to the \"quick dump\" feature of the Mark II
