backup frame / backup unit
'Backup' is an appropriate term for this concept of adding more capacity/power/etc. to a plant.
Regarding 'bastidor', it means probably a 'frame' or a 'rack'. But because this refers to a kind of productive unit, if you are not sure about 'frame' or 'rack' you may name it simply 'unit'.
Ref.: engineering experience.

Hi David,
base frame commonly appears alongside desalination in search engines, it could be what you're looking for. Perhaps a bit more of the text in Spanish would help pin down exactly what the part is.

No, you're right, it doesn't sound correct. Perhaps you think 'reserve rack' is fine?

: I fail to see how a 'base frame' (i.e. a 'skid') could, of itself, "garantizar la producción diaria de 250 MLD".
