Tech/Engineering - Mechanics / Mech Engineering / Heat exchangers
French term or phrase: boîte collectrice
Part of a heat exchanger that is used to collect and distribute a fluid (in particular for vehicle batteries).

This seems to have a different translation on every site I check. Does anyone with a good knowledge of the field know what the standard term is in English?

Thanks in advance.
