slothm
: fire hydrant boxes. The hydrant is already a valve by itself.

: the hydrant is a valve by itself, and also a box by itself, hence an overtranslation.

This is simply a fire hydrant, where you wouldn't need to make the distinction of a 'valve box' as all fire hydrants are boxed in housing which contains a valve which regulates the flow of water to the attached hosepipe; 'fire hydrant', simply that.
