The Hitachi Zosen low-temperature ethane submersible pump has a component called a Head Plate; what is the most accurate way to translate this term? Upon checking Wu Renrong’s book \"New Compilation of English-Chinese and Chinese-English Glossary of Pumping Technology Terms\", separate explanations are provided for \"head\" and \"plate\": Head refers to the head portion, water head, or pressure head; Plate refers to a sheet of metal. For example, base plate means the bottom plate, while cap plate means the top plate or covering plate.
It would be more appropriate to provide an accurate translation by referring to the position of this term on the drawing. Independent of the drawings, this term can be understood as: cover plate, end cap, head
Top plate, a flange cover that fits with the flange on the pump well.
It is still necessary to translate it within a specific context for greater accuracy. But it generally won’t deviate much, right? It shouldn’t affect understanding
