Explanation:
Leomar is probably right; however, I found the following in the Collazo's dictionary, which may shed some light into your subject.

Seitz breakdown theory=teoria de Seitz sobre la disrupcion. Teoria segun la cual la disrupcion se produce cuando se alcanza una magnitud de avalancha critica que da lugar a la formacion de un camino conductor.

placa clarificante=clarifier plate
bujia de Berkerfield=didn't find it, but I found "bujia de Hefner" y la traducen como "Hefner candle" so you may be able to translate it as Berkerfield candle.

Buena suerte! Happy translating ;o)

Explanation:
BJ, I found the other term: "Berkefeld filter" (correct spelling) = Filtro de Berkefeld (W. Berkefeld, fabricante, 1836-1897). Filtro en el cual el liquido pasa a traves de una preparacion de algas diatomáteas"
