I am looking for assistance in translating "tags" which were recovered from the U-853. I presume these "tags" were used to label valves or controls and would apreciate any information on translation from german to english as well as the exact location of the "tags" on board.The wording is as follows:

Tiefenruderleitung
fetten measures 3.9375"x 1.375"
with two holes for screws

Bordv Hd
Luftflascherrngr 8 measures 3.5"x 1.1875"
with two holes for screws

Notverschl Kl 6 Stb
13 Umdr measures 4.125"x 1"
with two holes for screws

??rdv Prufanschl damaged
Treibolb Bb 2 i measures ?x 1"
with only one hole for screws
on the right side visable

The above tags are made of white "bakalite" material with dark engraved lettering. The following description is of a grey "bakalite" material with dark engraved letters.

Backsgeschirr measures 3"x .6875"

Any assistance is greatly apreciated.
