2.3.15 Decommissioning the instrument
WARNING!
Ensure instruments that have been taken out of service are not
accidentally recommissioned (e.g. through marking the instrument).
After exchanging the instrument, a functional test of the entire safe-
ty function (safety loop) should be initiated, in order to test whether
the safety function of the system is still guaranteed. Function tests
are intended to demonstrate the correct function of the whole
safety-related system, including all instruments (sensor, logic unit,
actuator).
