Still struggling with my sewer system document, I hope somebody can help me with below terms?.

Groot Woordenboek Industrie & Techniek:

• uitslagpeil (moment waarop of peil waarbij een pompgemaal uitslaat) = pump termination stage; lowest pump stage

inflow and outflow level

Other words that come to mind are drainage and discharge, but using both of them would be confusing.
