Abstract
A sensor includes a housing, at least one sensor component disposed within the housing such that there is space between the housing and the sensor component, and a vibrational damping material disposed within the space to dampen vibration of the sensor components relative to the housing. The sensor can be a thermal sensor. For example, the thermal sensor can be a linear thermal detector, an optical flame detector, or any other suitable type of sensor or combination of sensors.
