A medical pressure transducer (10) including a reusable component (100) with channels (160, 162) to either side of reusable diaphragm (124), and a disposable dome (200) with mounting wings (230, 232) to either side of disposable diaphragm (224). The wings are slidably receivable in the channels to mount dome (200) with the diaphragms (124, 224) in confronting relationship. Camming ramps (180, 240) are provided in channels (160, 162) and on wings (230, 232), respectively, by which to drive dome diaphragm (224) into reusable diaphragm (124) as dome (200) is slidably mounted to reusable component (100). A depression (192) and a projection (274) are provided to lock diaphragms (124, 224) into confronting relationship which may take the form of a tab-receiving slot (192) and a locking tab (274). The dome includes second wings (250, 252) spaced from the mounting wings to receive the outer front walls. Second wings (250, 252) have finger gripping portions (264, 265) one of which is a locking paddle (270) supporting lock tab (274). |
