(valve) limiter

a "tope" is a limiter, here it is a valve limiter

I have seen some other examples of this meaning "connection" or "adapter", so I am less sure of the exact meaning since they would all possibly fit depending on the exact nature of the structure in question

looking at pics of what this seems to be I might go with "limiting adapter"

I think that his is about a valve locking device used to prevent unauthorized opening of the valve while work is being performed.
