"verificare eventuali trafilamenti d'aria dalle portelle, dalle membrane o dalla tramoggia del diverter e se necessario siliconare."
si parla di un depolveratore (filtro) a 4 cartucce per captare e filtrare i fumi derivanti dal taglio termico e le polveri derivanti da lavorazioni di oggetti metallici.
successivamente, nel paragrafo sulle istruzioni per l'installazione, si legge: "nel caso in cui si verificassero leggeri trafilamenti d'aria sui bordi perimetrali, sigillare dove necessario".
si tratta di perdite d'aria??
grazie!

air leakage
I don't wish to be pedantic, just thought that 'leakage' sounds slightly more technical than 'leaking' in this context, and refers more to specific leak points rather than the general process of leaking. :o)

Italian term (edited):
trafilamento dell\'aria
airtight (see explanation below)
I agree with air leakage but I would change the sentence structure. See the example sentences given.
Example sentence:
"check that the doors, diaphragm and diverter hopper are airtight, sealing with silicone if necessary."
"make sure the outside edges are airtight, sealing where necessary".

Silvia Nigretto
: I agree with you as well although the phrase "verificare eventuali..." is usually found in manuals as "Check something for xxx"

Thanks. I agree that "Check for air leaks..." could also work well.
