oil carryover Explanation: The Swe product description has your term at the bottom, in relation to the oil separator. The Eng describes the same products -- with the same concept (cutting cost) with my suggestion, in relation to the oil separator. I'm no expert tho...but there are plenty of hits for my suggestion. See if this fits your context... Reference: http://refparts.eu/Produktblad/Sabroe%20SMC.pdf Reference: http://www.johnsoncontrols.com/sk_sk/-/media/jci/global-capa... |

oil wastage Explanation: Deane's references are impeccable, but I just wonder if the translation in his ref 2 is not quite right. Oil carryover implies that the oil stock is maintained, whereas oil 'wastage' (derived from 'out-throw') means loss of oil and higher costs. |
