English term or phrase: indifference (in this context)
Sentence: The absence of moving components and a great ***indifference*** to the fluid entrained in the suction flow result in a great operational reliability and relatively little maintenance work. Entiendo que el fluido no lo afecta, pero no encuentro una palabra adecuada en español. Gracias, Mariana
