Abstract
A pressure sensor (3) is firmly connected to a base plate (1). The base plate (1) can be mounted, together with the pressure sensor (3), on a counterplate (7). The counterplate (7) has a drilled hole (8) through which pressure can be applied to the pressure sensor (3). The pressure sensor (3) has a connecting element (6) which projects, in the mounted state, into the drilled hole (8) in the counterplate (7).
Claims15
An arrangement for measuring a pressure in a fluid or gaseous medium, comprising:
- a base plate,
- at least one pressure sensor, which is connected to the base plate, and
- a counterplate, on which the base plate with the pressure sensor or sensors can be mounted, and which has drilled holes through which pressure can be applied to the pressure sensor or sensors,
- wherein precisely one pressure sensor has a connecting element which projects, in the mounted state, into one of the drilled holes in the counterplate.
1 more element
A method for measuring a pressure in a fluid or gaseous medium, comprising the steps of:
- connecting at least one pressure sensor to a base plate,
- mounting a counterplate on the base plate with the pressure sensor or sensors, wherein the counterplate comprises at least one drilled hole into which a connecting element of precisely one pressure sensor projects, and
- applying a pressure through said drilled hole to the pressure sensor or sensors.
