Schuetttrockner

English translation: Schütt dryer

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
German term or phrase:Schuett Trockner
English translation:Schütt dryer
Entered by: Maya Jurt

German to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering / Refrigeration
German term or phrase: Schuetttrockner
Document about refrigerators:
"Trockner: 2 Stk. Schuetttrockner 19 mm Durchmesser."
exapno
Schütt dryer
Explanation:
I do not think bulk dryer is what you are looking for in the context of refrigerators.

Schütt is a German company and it is mentioned in the context of laboratory equipment. Is your refrigerator a lab fridge?

The only problem is that you writ Schütttrockner, not Schütt-Trockner.

Have a look at the link below.

agree  Dietrich Herrmann, MD, PhD, MBA: I believe we are not talking about the Schuett-company but Schuettgut which is to be dried. In which case John is quite right. See the bilingual reference: http://www.krauss-maffei.de/pdf/kvv/Tellertrockner.pdf

agree  Ingrid Grzeszik: 19 mm diameter could not really be related to "bulk", can they?
