Patent ID: 7827867

Claim:
A pressure detection assembly comprising: a base element having a connecting duct configured to supply a pressurized medium through the base element; and a pressure detection device, the pressure detection device configured for mounting in the base, the pressure detection device comprising: a carrier body comprising: a first end of the carrier body configured to mate with the base element; a plug connector portion having contact elements at a second end of the carrier body opposite the first end configured to mate with a plug; a reception orifice, the reception orifice arranged transverse to an axis from the first end of the carrier body to the second end of the carrier body; and a pressure duct connected to the connecting duct at a first end when the first end of the carrier body mates with the base element, wherein the pressure duct terminates at the reception orifice at a second end; and a pressure sensor element mounted in the reception orifice of the carrier body, the pressure sensor element configured to have a pressure-sensitive sensor surface of the pressure sensor element exposed to a pressure from the pressure duct, and the pressure sensor element connected to the contact elements.
