Nederlands term

afschakelen

Nederlands naar Engels Techniek Techniek: Industrieel voice-over tekst, industrial safety
"X is bijv. heel gefocust op een VHR of dubbele sensoren, maar men vergeet het achterste stukje, het *afschakelen* of men vergeet het afzekeren."

Background: the text focuses on industrial safety (safeguards, etc.), and specifically in this section on safety controls.

How should this term be rendered accurately? TIA for your assistance. Cheers, R.
