changeout
Scheduled part replacement
A changeout is the replacement of equipment, parts, or components, typically in industrial, mechanical, or military contexts: The engine changeout took six hours, scheduled filter changeouts.
The term emphasizes the swap itself—removing one item and installing another—rather than simple removal or repair.
Common in maintenance and operations settings.
