threshold pump
Explanation:
This seems to be a general term (not having any more context), and could therefore be translated as threshold pump. In the below example, the threshold in question is a laser threshold, but as I assume this refers to some type of power threshold, the translation would still be valid.

Example sentence(s):
  • The threshold pump power of a laser is the value of the pump power at which the laser threshold is just reached, usually assuming steady-state conditions.
