Recognize

[Jack8rkin]

Hello!
A tube bundle is examined and its condition is identified based on this examinaiton.
Can I say:
The tube bundle is recognized as leak-tight/leaky.

Any suggestions?

Thank you

No, "is recognized" would not be correct in this context.

The tube bundle was shown to be leak-tight/leaky.
Inspection revealed that the tube bundle was leak-tight/leaky.
After inspection, we found the tube bundle to be leak-tight/leaky.

or - quite simply,

The tube bundle was (is) leak-tight/leaky.

Ok. Then, does "is recognized as" require a noun? There are examples in the web that use participles.

Well, the situation is that nobody shows nothing. The object is examined and then a conclusion is made to be written in a report.
I can't say "we" in this context.
I can't mention the inspection in this sentence.
I have to describe the process in my translation, the object is not just leaky or leak-tight.
It is "admitted, considered" or whatewer to be leaky or leak-tight...
Could you suggest anything else?

Thank you.

You're welcome.
I'm sorry, but I do not understand what you are seeking.
Hopefully, someone else can.
Best of luck.

"To be recognised as" suggests are wider-reaching recognition.

Marlon Brando is recognised as one of the best actors of his generation.
Krysalis Photography is recognised as the best wedding photography company in the area.

To inspect a piece of equipment and find it to be in a certain condition does not really require such "recognition".

I don't know why you can't say "inspected," but try "certified."

[Jack8rkin]

I don't know why you can't say "inspected," but try "certified."

Certified could imply getting a certificate. No certificate in my case.

What do you mean inspected.
The context is like this:
The tube bundle was inspected (there is a visual inspection, mesurements of dimensions, special leak test etc.)

Well, what if I say:
The tube bundle was found leak-tight/leaky.

Will it sound decently?

Ok. I've grasped the idea!
There is no hint of that peculiarity in the dictionaries I consulted.

Thanks to everyone.

Here, I'm repeating the question from the above box:

Well, what if I say:
The tube bundle was found leak-tight/leaky.

It was found to be leak-proof/leaking.
