Abstract

A method is provided for measuring status parameters of a fluid contained in a container (10). The container (10) is configured for single use and has a wall on which a sensor-carrier plate is fixed in a fluid-tight manner. The plate carries sensors (S1-S5) that are in operative contact with the internal chamber of the container (10) and connected for data exchange (14) with an external control unit (16) that receives and processes the measurement data from the sensors (S1-S5). The sensor plate also carries a temporarily inactive duplicate (D1-D5) of at least one of the sensors (S1-S5) that is activated if measurement data of the sensor (S1-S5) is classified as atypical in the context of an integrity or plausibility test carried out by the external control unit (16).
