Indonesian term or phrase: sekoci
Dalam dokumen SNI, untuk melakukan uji komposisi kimia baja karbon, "sekoci" itu digunakan dengan
botol oksigen, pengatur tekanan, larutan NaOH, penerap, botol isi H2SO4 dll.
Kelihatannya bukan "kapal". Apa memaksudkan "sekoci" dalam konteks ini?
Jika ada orang yang menjelaskan, tolong bantu saya...
Boleh dijawab dalam bahasa Indonesia serta Bahasa Inggris.

English translation:vessel
Explanation:
"vessel" doesn't necessarily mean "ship" though it does seem an odd choice in Indonesian - perhaps a relic of a back translation from English? "Vessel" is however a good choice as a general term for all types of containers.
