Sensor protective device

摘要

A sensor protector is intended to reduce the sensitivity of the optical sensor (4) to radiation products which, for example, are formed during sterilization with gamma radiation and to ensure simple and cost-effective manufacture. The sensor protector includes an upper part (1), a lower part (3) and an optical sensor (4). The optical sensor (4) situated on the lower part is positionable in an offset manner with respect to an opening (2) situated in the upper part and movable by means of displacement toward the opening (2) of the upper part (1). The sensor protector is suitable for use in containers and laboratory products that are sterilized by gamma radiation, for example disposable bioreactors.
