English term or phrase: high heads
...can pump high amounts of solids over long distances and high heads

Dit is een brochure voor pompen. Ik heb dit voorlopig vertaald als "hoge koppen", maar denk eigenlijk dat "hoge gedeelten" beter is.

Kan iemand dit bevestigen?

Hartelijke dank!

hoge opvoerhoogten
Explanation:
De juiste uitdrukking voor 'head' bij pompen is opvoerhoogte - het is iets anders dan druk

Zie het volgende extract van https://hollandaptblog.com/2014/02/07/what-is-pump-head-how-...

So what is the difference between pressure and head then? While some pump manufacturers that use pressure (differential pressure, that is) to characterize their pumps, this is not the most “accurate” way to do so. Head is useful because it evaluates a pump’s capacity to do a job. Most pump applications involve moving fluid to a higher level. If you have to pump a liquid up 30 feet and your pump doesn’t have at least 30 feet of head, then there is no chance it will work. Your pump will need at least 30 ft. plus the friction loss to get the required flow at the discharge point.

hoge drukken


Explanation:
Het staat er een beetje raar, het tussenvoegsel 'at' ontbreekt: ..over lange afstanden en met (onder) hoge drukken... wordt het dan.
