adapted to/adapted for

Can't be sure with your patentspeak here, but this phrase generally seems to be used in patents, and says what you want in both the contexts you have given. My Swedish wife didn't like the word 'tillordnat' either.

As a reference here, but there are more... http://www.google.co.in/patents/US5405236

arranged (for)

In this context it seems to make more sense to translate tillordnat with "arranged for". Another possible translation is "assigned to" but that doesn't seem to work as well here.
Example sentence:

A centrifuge is arranged for cleaning the lubricating oil in the system
