English term or phrase: blank float switch
Bei der ersten Inbetriebnahmen einer Maschine:

Remove blank float switch, then carefully install centering ring and float switch.

Beim blank float switch handelt es sich sozusagem um einen Platzhalter für den richtigen float switch, der vor
der ersten Inbetriebnahme installiert werden muss. Der blank float switch wird dann einfach herausgezogen und dann
der "richtige" float switch installiert.
Ideen, wie man das auf Deutsch elegant ausdrücken kann?
