Patent ID: 8499642

Claim:
A fluid pressure sensing device comprising: a pressure sensing transducer having a support structure and a diaphragm attached to said support structure, the diaphragm having a fluid facing side to be exposed to a fluid pressure; a connector body having connector terminals therein; a housing for forming a chamber together with the connector body; and an electrical circuit disposed in the chamber electrically connected to the transducer and connector terminals for providing an electrical signal corresponding to the applied pressure at the diaphragm, the housing having a transducer receiving cavity defined by a bottom wall and a housing sidewall extending upwardly from the bottom wall, the bottom wall formed with a fluid pressure receiving recess, a fluid pressure port formed in the housing in communication with the recess, wherein, the diaphragm is positioned between the support structure and the fluid pressure receiving recess and a seal material around a support structure sidewall fixes the pressure sensing transducer in the housing and provides a hermetic seal.
