Abstract

A sensor for outputting a sensor signal which is dependent on a variable to be measured, including: —a measuring pickup which is connected electrically to a data line at a connecting point, is housed in a measuring pickup housing and is set up to feed the sensor signal which is dependent on the variable to be measured into the data line, with the result that the sensor signal can be output via the data line, an installation housing which houses the measuring pickup housing and the data line at least at the connecting point and is manufactured from a flexible material, and—a fastening element which is connected fixedly to the installation housing for fastening the installation housing to a sensor holder, wherein the measuring pickup housing; and the fastening element are arranged on two sides of the installation housing which lie opposite one another.
