at least one measuring transmitter, which is connected to the electronics unit, for detecting a measuring quantity, and
at least one triggering element connected to the electronics unit,
wherein the electronics unit is designed and configured such that a first service request to the service unit occurs both upon an actuation of the triggering element and when a threshold value of the measuring quantity is exceeded,
wherein services are requested with different priorities in such a manner that prioritizing takes place in an automated manner if predetermined threshold values are exceeded and manually by depressing the triggering element once or several times or keeping it depressed.
