Spanish term

bomba de absorción

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering Pumps
In a document from Spain for translation to British English. In general the description is of cleaning inside tanks using a system that sprays water and then sucks it up, so the "bomba de absorción" is on a "tubo" that sticks into the liquid to "absorber líquido"

"...conecta la bomba de absorción con el tubo de limpieza interior de depósitos para absorber líquido."
Proposed translations (English)
