Válvula de flujo súbito (retención automática)
Spanish to English
Tech/Engineering
Electronics / Elect Eng
It's a text discussing substation machinery. Towards the end of the file, there is the a short list of types of valves, one of which, and the only one I am unsure of, is: "Válvula de flujo súbito (retención automática)".

surge valve / surge relief valve
a sudden flow burst is a surge
there are plenty of hits

Excess Flow Valve with (Automatic) Check Valve
I am only doing this because retención automática does not mean automatic lock-out, it refers to a check valve, which works automatically by nature so the inclusion of automatic is optional/somewhat redundant
See these links for the same product in English and Spanish (VÁLVULA DE RETENCIÓN AUTOMÁTICA/AUTOMATIC CHECK VALVE):
http://www.itap.it/heating-valves/air-vent-valves-and-safety...
http://www.itap.it/válvulas-para-instalaciones-de-calefacció...
Válvulas de Exceso de Flujo (Excess Flow Valve): cierre rápido para controlar un flujo súbito y momentáneo, hacia un tanque.
So this is the complete correct answer.

: Asker's question is not about "VÁLVULA DE RETENCIÓN AUTOMÁTICA" - it's about "Válvula de flujo súbito"; and Asker tells us the field is 'Electronics / Elect Eng', not 'hydraulics'.

sudden flow valve (automatic lock-out)
or Excess flow valve
Use: Excess flow valves are used to prevent excessive flow or surges in flow caused by line ..... service to stop the flow in the event of a sudden flow change.

The XXXX Cut-Off Valve is designed to stop outflow of oil from a transformer conservator in case of a sudden outflow of oil from the transformer tank due to its impairement. The valve is provided with an optical indicator and electric contacts, which allow remote observation of its closed position.The valve is suitable for fitting in a pipe connecting the conservator with the tank cover.

Transformer conservator isolation valve (TCIV)
The TCIV operates as a non return valve so long as there is abnormal flow of oil, and operates as a conduit or pipe during normal flow of oil. In case of a sudden flow of oil considered as an abnormal flow, the valve mechanism inside moves clockwise and shuts off any passage of oil through the valve
