Tech/Engineering - Energy / Power Generation / Air Meters
German term or phrase: Zählerstelle
"Analog zum Strom- oder Wasserzähler wird somit der individuelle Verbrauch erfasst. Die Verbrauchswerte sind direkt am Zähler ablesbar. Zudem können sie auch an eine zentrale Zählerstelle übermittelt werden."

From a text about an air meter. I can't find a translation for "Zählerstelle" that would fit this context. It's certainly not a counterposition!!! TIA for any light you can shed on this.

Explanation:
See discussion.

This is a very general term; accounting for the fact the we don't know what the "point" actually will be, in physical terms.
