Hi - I'm having difficulty find the English equivalent for this, although I've found some reference to nødspjeld
Nødspjeld (rusningsvern/rig-saver) er blant annet installert på dieselmotorer som driver pumper for brannvann.
Another example
Økningen medfører til slutt at rusningsvern slår inn og stopper motoren
Thanks for your help!

I have found this is the common usage afloat and ashore.
Example sentence:
