fill, air, feed and return valve
Explanation:
llenado is a fill valve....alimentación is supply and I don't know the difference. the toma is a valve in my opinion...

OR

fuel [or gas or diesel], air, feed and return valves...they sound separate..also it is not clear what it is running on....

linea is LINE

linea de retorno= return line

supply is alimentación but it can also be the feed line...

these things are TOMAS and not gauges, right? Tomas are openings to let something in or out, not a measuring device.
