Spanish term or phrase: drenaje de bombonas de aire
Estoy traduciendo unas hojas del plan de matenimiento de unas unidades pesadas. El documento parece haber sido traducido de otro idioma al español:

"Frenos (motor encendido)
-- O.P. frenos de servicio
-- O. P. frenos de posición
-- Aplicación de Chambers
-- No fugas de aire en chambers
-- Mo fugas de aire en mangueras y conexiones
-- No aceite en bandas
-- Ruidos no usuales
-- **Drenaje de bombonas de aire**"

No logro encontrar el equivalente en inglés. He encontrado que hay cámaras de aire en los frenos neumáticos, pero una cámara y una bombona no son lo mismo

¿Me echan una mano? Mil gracias

English translation:bleeding (the) air tanks
Explanation:
Bleed: The escape of fluid or gas from a closed system through a valve.
"check the amount of air bleed from the compressor"...

It functions both a noun and a verb.

I'd usually translate "bombona" as "canister" if it's a "bombona de butano", but it could equally be a tank or some other type of container.

Keep your AIR TANKS BLED on a consistent basis and check your drier for a heat element ( should have one,) and always keep a torch handy.

"Chassis' needed greasing, brakes and clutches were manually adjusted, air tanks bled, engine oil had to be changed more often"

Example sentence(s):
  • If you bleed a closed system such as a radiator or a brake, you remove air or liquid from it to make it work correctly.
