Italian term

ventilatione media per vano

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Engineering (general)
from an Italian text translated into English,
I have an English version of this phrase, but .... I can't work out its meaning :-)
This "ventilazione..." is a part, a function, a feature, etc. of one of the sections of a very complex cigarette making machine. My problem is that the phrase is displayed on a machine's monitor and I'm translating such displayed messages (aka strings), so I can't even imagine what it is :-(

Any help would be much appreciated, as usual :-)
Proposed translations (English)

Typos? You should know I'm a champion in typos in my language pairs. So, this not a problem. Your only problem, from my point of view, is that you can't speak Polish :-))
It was a pleasure to meet you :-)
Stefano Asperti Sep 2, 2005:
Another typo... "coffee". I should take some typewriting lessons...
Stefano Asperti Sep 2, 2005:
Good morning! Just had my cofee too :o) I'm really a crazy guy. You're lucky because I can't speak Polish otherwise you'd have to deal with me more often :-D LOL. Just kidding; I'm glad I could help you. Have a GOOD day and weekend (TGIF!!!)

Stefano Asperti Sep 1, 2005:
I'm blushing :o) Thanks ;-)
bartek (asker) Sep 1, 2005:
Stefano, you are a genius! Makes sense :-)
Stefano Asperti Sep 1, 2005:
Literally "ventilazione media per vano" means "average ventilation for compartment"
