German term

Sonolog

German to English Tech/Engineering Geology steam injection
There is a diagram of a piece of machinery used for steam injection with various parts. One is called a Sonolog. Is that its name in English too? I literally have no other information to provide besides other parts on the same diagram so will list those below:

exhaust pipe
fast-acting valve
steam entrance
natural gas or nitrogen entrance
solid block
