Return switch valve

Ask your client about this homemade word! No occurences for "Returomslagsventil" :)

However, for sure "omslag" is the nominalisation for "slå om" (= toggle; switch) (not "sleeve" in this context)
So that yields this pretty literal translation suggestion.

I am guessing about the "retur"-part of the valve... does that help?
