German term

druckstand

German to English Tech/Engineering Engineering: Industrial
Dritthöchste Priorität schließlich hat der Austausch des Druckstands, was Aufwand in Höhe von rd. XXX T-EURO verursachen wird.

Not much useful context here--the company produces safety and control valves, so this falls within that general area--some piece of equipment to be replaced.

Selected

pressure rig

or
pressure holding rig
A larger unit for testing pressure holding capability of valves, this would also explain the xxxT costs.
Peer comment(s):

agree Gillian Scheibelein : prefer this, text doesn't mention that the equipment is used for testing (although it probably is!)

Thanks. Pressure rig is not necessarily used for testing, it was just an idea also supported by Klaus see below.

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Pressure rig sounds like the best option - sufficiently vague that it could be one of several things. "

Peer comment(s):

neutral Klaus Herrmann : pressure level isn't equipment, and exchanging (not a matching verb, btw) won't cost thousands of Euros, would it?

pressure calibration stand, pressure test bench,

If it appears in an equipment list, this might be it.

I'd suggest you contact the client about this.

agree Steffen Walter : the close as one can get :-)

Thanks, Steffen
neutral Edith Kelly : But these are two different processes, I think a more neutral wording might be called for.
