Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022122397A1] The invention relates to a pressure transducer, in particular an overload-proof pressure transducer, for measuring a pressure (p), which transducer comprises a pressure sensor (5) which is provided in the interior space (3) of a sensor housing (1), can be acted upon through an opening (7) in the sensor housing (1) by a medium under the pressure (p) to be measured, and by which high pressures, in particular even pressures of up to 1000 bar, of a medium under the pressure to be measured, in particular a medium containing hydrogen, can be measured with a high degree of measurement accuracy. This pressure transducer is characterised in that: the pressure sensor (5) is mounted on connector elements (9) which protrude into the interior space (3) and are free-standing in the interior space (3) in such a way that the pressure sensor (5) is exposed on all sides to the pressure (p) prevailing in the interior space (3); the pressure sensor comprises two ceramic measuring elements (13, 15, 13', 15') which are connected to one another, enclosing a pressure chamber (11), and are each deformable by the pressure (p) acting on them; and the pressure sensor comprises an electromechanical transducer which converts a mechanical variable which is dependent on a sum of the pressure-dependent deformations of both measuring elements (13, 15, 13', 15') into a metrologically detectable electrical measurement variable.
