Measuring Sensor

Abstract

A measuring sensor includes a housing in which an acceleration sensor is arranged and in which a circuit board is retained with a sensor electronics arranged thereon and a mounting element functions to secure the measuring sensor to a test object, wherein the acceleration sensor is mechanically rigidly coupled to the mounting element and connected to the sensor electronics via a flexible line connection, where in order to optimize the coupling of the acceleration sensor to the test object to be monitored, in terms of detecting oscillations, vibrations or structure-borne noise, the acceleration sensor is directly connected to the mounting element without mechanical contact with the housing, and the housing is retained elastically on the mounting element and supported by the mounting element.
