Claim 3:
4. A fluid guiding system comprising,
first and second fluid guiding modules, including:
a housing having a sensor chamber in the housing which extends along a first axis and has a first chamber end and a second chamber end axially distanced from the first chamber end,
a first connection region for connecting to a second fluid guiding module, the first connection region being located on a first outer side of the housing and extending along a second axis and having a first redirection channel which extends along the second axis and has a first redirection channel end and a second redirection channel end axially distanced from the first redirection channel end along the first redirection channel,
a chamber inlet channel fluidly coupling the first redirection channel end to the first chamber end of the sensor chamber,
wherein the first redirection channel is adapted to be fluidly coupled to a chamber outlet channel of the second fluid guiding module,
a second connection region for connecting to a third fluid guiding module, the second connection region being located on a second outer side of the housing and extending along a third axis parallel to the second axis,
a chamber outlet channel fluidly coupling the second connection region to the first chamber end of the sensor chamber,
wherein the chamber outlet channel is adapted to be connected to a chamber inlet channel of the third fluid guiding module,
wherein the first redirection channel and/or the second redirection channel are each adapted to accommodate a sealing unit so that when the fluid guiding module is connected to the second fluid guiding module and/or the third fluid guiding module, the sealing unit is provided in each case to touch a fluid transiting between the fluid guiding module and the second fluid guiding module and/or between the fluid guiding module and the third fluid guiding module;
the sealing unit for sealing the first connection region of the first fluid guiding module to the of the second fluid guiding module,
a connecting element for connecting the first connection region of the first fluid guiding module to the second connection region,
wherein the first fluid guiding module and the second fluid guiding module are adapted to fluidly couple the chamber outlet channel of the second fluid guiding module to the chamber inlet channel of the first fluid guiding module by means of the first redirection channel of the first fluid guiding module,
wherein the connecting element is configured to press together the first and second connection regions;
wherein the first redirection channel and/or a second redirection channel are formed from a circumferential side wall bounding the redirection channel and a bottom wall, wherein the bottom wall is configured as a planar surface and is adapted for receiving the sealing unit.
