Abstract
The invention relates to a measuring cell with a casing for housing a sensor, in particular a pressure transducer, in which the casing has a pressure compensation vent for the sensor; and is provided with a sealing element with an axisymmetrical circumferential surface arranged proximate an internal surface of a casing bore formed operably and complementary hereto, and that the pressure compensation vent is formed as at least one gap resistant to ignition flashovers by interaction of a strip-shaped and plane surface section extending along the casing bore on the circumferential surface of the sealing element with the internal surface of the casing bore.
