pig


Explanation:
Jeg brugte en google-manøvre. Hvis du søger på "rensegris" finder du udtrykket Solid Universal Displacement (SUD). Jeg søgte på det og fandt et resultat der er Solid Universalt Displacement Pig. Derefter søgte jeg "SUD pig" hvilket gav en lang række resultater, der synes at bekræfte, at en rensegris simpelthen hedder "pig" på engelsk.
Lidt af omveje, men jeg tror, det holder ;-)

Notes to answerer
Asker: Hi Sgolly - Funny that we went through the same exact process of finding a solution. I did precisely the same thing with Google, which is why I ended up closing the question. But thanks! :-)

agree  Jande: "Afsenderstation for rensegris" = pig launcher (or barrel). There are pigs for cleaning and pigs for measuring.
