English term or phrase: A separate bleed in adaptor compatible with the positive pressure device may be
This is taken from a user manual for a breathing mask, the term "bleed", I suspect, has nothing to do with actual blood, but perhaps with oxygen flow, supply or control. I'm picturing a knob, switch or connection that serves an oxygen related purpose. Source language is US English, and I believe the manual is intended for home use by untrained carers. The text in general comes across as purposefully written, hence I believe the source term in question indeed is established, but it might not be heavily used. Is there an actual Norwegian term of this?
