Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general) / irrigation system
English term or phrase: control head
Caros colegas,
Este termo aparece várias vezes em vários contextos e, das diligências que fiz inclusivamente com engenheiros mecânicos, ninguém consegue discernir o termo.
A frase, aqui, é:
"The control head for each irrigation branch system shall include all components as shown on the Drawings, as required for the complete operation of the system. The final size of all components of each control head for each irrigation branch system shall be..."

sistema de controlo
Explanation:
Em sistemas de irrigação, "control head" não significa nenhuma peça em particular (head) (e muito menos "pressão"), mas apenas o conjunto dos dispositivos de controlo do sistema: filtros, reguladores de pressão, colectores, válvulas, etc. Daí a frase original "control head shall include all components...".
Neste caso, cada ramal da instalação deve ter o seu próprio sistema de controlo. O que é óbvio.
