A device (100) for measuring the pressure of a fluid comprising a mantle region (200) defining an fluid conduit (210), a detection system (600) comprising a measurement element (300) and a target member (500), wherein at least a portion of the measurement element (300) is arranged inside the fluid conduit (210), the measurement element (300) comprising a connection region (310) being affixed to the mantle region (200), and wherein the target member (500) is arranged inside the fluid conduit (210) in a fixed position with respect to the measurement element (300), the measurement element (300) having a first external surface (320) and a second external surface (330), wherein the first (320) and the second (330) external surfaces are arranged substantially opposite to one another, and at least one position sensor (400) for evaluating the position of the target member (500) along a locating path (L), wherein the position sensor (400) is arranged outside the fluid conduit (210) in a fixed position with respect to the connection region (310), and wherein at least a portion of the measurement element (300) is elastically deformable along a deforming direction (D) by a deforming force acting on the measurement element (300), the deforming force being generated by a difference between the local pressure of the fluid at the first external surface (320) and the local pressure of the fluid at the second external surface (330), and the position of the target member (500) along the locating path (L) with respect to the position sensor (400) depends on the deforming force. |
