Abstract

A measuring device is proposed whose sensors (12) and circuit holders (14) are combined into a compactly structured measuring device (10). This measuring device (10) has a console (11), which is used for containing circuit holders (14) and sensors (12). The measuring device (10), which can be fastened anywhere and is therefore easily accessible, permits a relatively short, direct line routing and consequently, to the greatest extent possible, prevents the accumulation of function-impairing air cushions in the measuring circuits, particularly in pressure measurements. specially embodied bushings (35) that are connected in an airtight fashion to the measuring cells (30) of the pressure sensors (12) reduce the interior space of the cup-shaped pressure sensors (12) so that air cushions are also to a large extent prevented in these components.
