Abstract

A sensor device has a sensor element, two connecting elements configured as a wire and are led out of the sensor element, and a supporting element having a supporting body and two supporting feet to support the temperature sensor in a housing. The two connecting elements, the sensor element and the supporting body bound between themselves a two-dimensional clearance of a predefined width and height. A minimum dimension of the sensor element and the length and height of the supporting feet are dimensioned, relative to the clearance, such that neither the sensor element nor one of the supporting feet can enter the clearance of an adjacent sensor device.
