An instrument having components that are relevant as well as components that are not relevant to regulatory compliance, and a housing serving to accommodate the components, wherein the components that are relevant to regulatory compliance are arranged in the housing under a verification cap, so that they can only be accessed by removing the verification cap, and wherein the verification cap is secured with a verification mark in such a way that removing the verification cap will cause the verification mark to be destroyed. In this arrangement, the verification cap is fastened with at least one locking element, the components that are relevant to regulatory compliance are accessible only after the locking element has been removed, and at least one locking element is designed so that it can be removed while the housing remains closed.
