French term

filtre général à tamis à robinet de chasse

French to English Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering Plumbing
Item on a list of plumbing supplies for a refurbishment. For "filtre à tamis" i have found mesh filter, strainer, sieve, screen amonst others and robinet de chasse is, I think, flushometer, but I can't seem to put the whole thing together with general to make something that brings up exact ghits in English.

For info, just before and after is as follows:

panoplie eau froide bureaux

vanne de barrage générale
filtre général à tamis à robinet de chasse
compteur volumétrique compris tête impulsions

Help would be much appreciated!

Many thanks.

general sieve filter with flush valve

See picture - I think the robinet is the valve at the bottom, not a flushometer

EN flush means blow out the debris or sediment
Peer comment(s):

neutral Tony M : I believe 'général' here needs to be regarded as 'overall' (or master).

Thanks, seems reasonable but I can't confirm. Or could mean general purpose, non-specialized? Probably same meaning as in vanne de barrage générale
Something went wrong...

Comment: "Many thanks for your suggestion, which I would have used - but the client decided they didn't need that part of the source text translated in the end (!) I am sure it will come in handy at some point in the future. Thank you to Tony too - I can't work out how to reply to peer comments."
