Abstract

A sensor module has a housing that may be mounted about a through opening of an assembly surface. The housing extends at least partly through the through opening when the housing is disposed on the assembly surface. The sensor module further has a sealing body, between the outer surface of the housing and the through opening of the assembly surface and an attachment device, by way of which the housing is fixed to the assembly surface. The attachment device lies on the through opening in order to bring about a mechanical fixation of the housing to the assembly surface.
