Spanish term or phrase: perfil Creager
This term appears in a text about fountains and water features, in Spain. I have very little context, and don't know if I should translate it literally or if there is a specific term for this in English:

Conexiones de equipos en pozos e inicio de colocación del perfil Creager.

Does anyone know what this is?

Thanks!

Thanks. I had seen the Creager curve but wasn't sure it was the same as the "perfil".
