Abstract

A slosh suppressor prevents damage to electronic components and wire bonds of a circuit module contained in a circuit chamber formed by the housing of a sensor module. The circuit module is positioned within the circuit chamber and has a silicon gel layer positioned thereon for protecting the circuit module from the environment. A housing cover is structured to engage the sensor housing and close the circuit chamber. The housing cover has a projection extending into the circuit chamber and engaging the silicon gel layer to reduce vibration in the silicon gel layer and protect the circuit module.
