"Zellenradschleuse (1): Dichtlippen des Rotors auf Verschleiss prüfen"
From a little text about some sort of filter device where most of it is in English, but there are a few isolated bits in German. This is from a page about maintenance checks. Others (listed in English) are: clean and check seals; check seal on inspection door; check fan impeller for untrue running; check filter in the measuring line for blocking; test vibrations on filter housing. (I'm quoting directly from the text here, hence the odd expressions like "untrue running".)
The only thing that I can find for "Dichtlippen" is "Dichtlippen-Einzieher", translated by Laixicon as "lipping tool". So is this just the lipping of the rotor? I'm not at all sure. TIA for your assistance.

Comment: "I should have realised this was a singular and looked up the singular form *slaps forehead*. LEO and Laixicon confirm "sealing lip" for "Dichtlippe", and I see a couple of peer graders confirm it too, so that's what I'll use. Still, no harm in putting this in the KOG as well. Many thanks - appreciate everyone's help."
