Italian term

lavaggio con torcia

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering machinery
La macchina non è predisposta per il lavaggio con torcia.
No further context, taken from list of things not to do with a machine e.g. dont let dust build up etc....

I am not familiar with this term. Does "con torcia" refer to a water jet?

Thanks in advance

4 hydrocleaning / waterblasting

The machine is like a big sieve used to separate gravel, stones etc from sand.

torcia - flare what kind of machine is it? If it is in a petrochemical plant they sometimes clean out (reactors/tanks/other machines) sending the contents to the "torcia" or flare.

I think that this is what you need, as the machine components are not protected and pressurized fluids can cause damage.
