agree Veronica Prpic Uhing : It must be - 10 detachable buretts. Pipetts can not be part of an assembly

Test pipette

I've a sneaking suspicion you could be right, but...it all depends.

They are both (as you know) used in labs, pipettes and burettes, but whereas burettes are graduated, pipettes are not (AFAIR). Therefore it will probably come down to asking the customer.

I don't think you can really rely on google with this one; it gives no hits for "Probebürette(n)", and only three for "Probepipette", so that's not exactly convincing, is it? Mind you, it does give three more for "Probepipette*N*" as well...
