It is in this way possible to choose a solenoid 8 of contained dimensions and it is thus possible to work with contained energization currents and with times of switching between the various operating positions of the solenoid valve contained within a few milliseconds, with a pressure p2, for example, in the region of 400 bar.

Have a care! As indicated above, the 1st 2 instances are being used with a different meaning from the 3rd!
Here, it means 'limited', 'restrained' — in fact, the sense is probably really 'minimized'
It's the same sort of sense as 'contained enthusiasm' — and cf. "She could hardly contain her excitement" — which then brings us on to the more usual meaning in the 3rd instance above: here perhaps 'compris'?

: Ça ne se dit pas en français. On peut contenir ses émotions, son enthousiasme, etc., mais pas des dimensions.
