English term or phrase: water weir overflow
The standard Water Weir flow controller must be mounted such that the top PCX sensor plumbing connector is lower than the water weir overflow. This ensure that the sensor will always prime by gravity feed. The water weir relies on gravity feed and constant head to maintain a constant flow rate through the sensor.

cota de soleira do descarregador


Explanation:
weir = descarregador
overflow = soleira ou cota de soleira (segundo a terminologia dos descarregadores)

princípio de funcionamento em http://www.usbr.gov/pmts/hydraulics_lab/pubs/wmm/chap07_03.h...

o texto refere-se a descarregadores tubulares que funcionam segundo o mesmo princípio dos descarregadores em canal aberto (Cipolleti, Bazin, ou soleira em bisel [sharp-crested], soleira espessa [broad-crested], etc.)
