Pressure sensor assembly structure to insulate a pressure sensing device from harsh environments

摘要

A pressure sensor assembly for determining the pressure of a fluid in a harsh environment includes a pressure sensor suspended within a fluid filled housing. The assembly includes a pressure transmitting device which transmits the pressure of the fluid to sensor and maintains the fluid within the housing in a void free condition. The pressure sensor assembly maintains the sensor in a near zero base strain condition and further protects the sensor from shock and vibration. The pressure sensor assembly further includes bumpers that limit the movement of the sensor within the housing.
