"Bei Kugelhähnen mit Anschweißenden ist unbedingt darauf zu achten, dass beim Einbau (Schweißen) keine Schweißpartikel in den Hahninnenraum gelangen. Schweißrückstände sind unbedingt zu entfernen."

In the installation instructions for ball valves. Obviously the Schweißpartikel and Schweißrückstände have nothing to do with sweat, but what is the correct technical term?

Das aus hochwertigen, thermisch stabilisierten Textilfasern bestehende Auflagefließ wirkt als Funkenfang. Das reißfeste Thermoglasgewebe sorgt für die erforderliche mechanische stabilität und verhindert durch ein Durchdringen eventuell auftretender größerer Schweißpartikel.

I received the following information on the two words (from an American):
"Weld expulsion" is the sparks seen when a weld occurs. In addition to the sparks, there is a small amount of residue or tiny particles that is expelled.
"Weld slag" is the build up of the weld expulsion, the residue or tiny particles left over after welds are made over a period of time. After a day or two of constant welding, the tiny particles accumulate on the machine. This is called weld slag and creates quality problems.

Im Deutschen kenne ich zum Einen die Schlackespritzer und den Schlackestaub.
Letzteres sammelt sich an und sifft alles ein - was tatsächlich herbe Probleme macht.
Die Schlackespritzer sind aber zumeist deutlich größer als "residue or tiny particles", dafür fällt mir jetzt nichts sinnvolles ein.

:
Ball valves with welding ends must be welded in without any welding particles left in the internal space of the ball valve. Residues from welding must be eliminated unconditionally.

Diese Schweißpartikel können in das Innere des Behälters bzw. in den Fluid- räum oder in die Arzneimittelzubereitung eindringen. These particles can weld cavities in the interior of the container or in the fluid or penetrate into the pharmaceutical preparation.
