Context: a Liquifier Operating Manual
Transfer of product liquid nitrogen*** make*** to the nitrogen storage tank occurs when control relay CR15 is energized to allow ***make*** valve PV449-B to open.
Direct-acting pressure controller PIC8446 controls liquid nitrogen drain via the drain valves (DV446-B) and PIC8446 controls liquid nitrogen make via the ***make*** valves (PV449-B).
During normal plant operation, the purity of the liquid nitrogen ***make*** from the liquefier is monitored by the analyzer.

elaborado - elaboración
En el caso del producto: "producto elaborado", en el caso de la válvula, "válvula de elaboración". ¿Por qué tanta especificación elaborada? como diría un reciente filósofo venezolano "Misterios de la ciencia".

English term (edited):
***make***
no traducir
¿Tal vez se trata de una válvula, palanca, comando, etc. de la maquinaria, cuyo nombre está escrito en inglés en el panel? En ese caso, convendría no traducir, manteniendo los asteriscos y tal vez añadiendo una traducción ("ejecutar", "realizar", etc) solamente la primera vez que aparece el término.

: "make", in the ST as quoted, cannot possibly equate to "ejecutar", "realizar", etc.

You are right about the meaning of the sentence, but perhaps it's just the name of a command or a labeled piece of machinery (hence, the asterisks). Anyway, I admit that my confidence level for this answer was "low". Thanks!

lote
I'm no expert in this field, but I reckon 'make' is equivalent to 'batch', or 'lot' --> "lote" in Spanish.
The ST refers to the transfer of a batch of freshly-generated liquid nitrogen into the storage tank.

Just to clarify: "make" in the ST is a noun, not a verb.

hagase
Entiendo el contexto de un manual de procedimientos. Entonces dentro de ese contexto la palabra es una órden: hágase, ejecútese, realícese o hagalo, ejecútelo, realízelo.

: As mentioned already, 'make' is a noun here, not a verb. As an 'instruction' it makes (!) no sense at all.//Please explain, if you can, the grammar in the phrase "via the *make* valves", if 'make' is a verb in the imperativa voice.

It is a commandment or imperative! No subject pronoun is needed. So it is a verb!

Gracias por el intento de todas formas.
Make:
A gas or liquid, produced by a plant, that is usable as “product.”
La traducción lógica sería "producto", pero el problema es que ya aparece el término "product" con un significado distinto. A veces aparecen los dos términos juntos, como en este título de una sección: Liquid Nitrogen Product Make Controls.
Agradezco las sugerencias.
