Abstract

The invention relates to a pressure sensor (2) with a housing (20, 22), a front-end sensor device (24), and a sensor-fastening device (25, 26, 27, 28) for fastening the sensor device (24) to and/or in the housing (20, 22). An advantageous ratio of the diameter (dS) of the sensor device (24) relative to the housing-fastening device (23) is achieved inasmuch as the sensor-fastening device (25, 26) encompasses and provides support to the sensor device (34) from the front end outwards, at least in the section of the front end rim area, and is attached by a joint to the housing.
