Claim:
A vibration-type measuring transducer, comprising: at least a first measuring tube for conveying a flowing medium, which extends with an oscillatory length between an inlet-side, first measuring tube end, and an outlet-side, second measuring tube end, and, during operation, oscillates, about an oscillation axis, which is parallel to or coincides with an imagined connecting axis, which imaginarily connects said two measuring tubes ends; and a sensor arrangement, which serves to register oscillations at least of said first measuring tube, the sensor arrangement includes: a first oscillation sensor, which is arranged on said at least a first measuring tube and which delivers a first primary signal of the measuring transducer representing vibrations of said at least a first measuring tube; and a second oscillation sensor, which is arranged on said at least a first measuring tube spaced from said first measuring sensor and delivering a second primary signal of the measuring transducer representing vibrations of said at least a first measuring tube; wherein: a length of a region of said at least a first measuring tube extending between said first oscillation sensor and said second oscillation sensor defines a measuring length of the measuring transducer; and said first oscillation sensor of said sensor arrangement and said second oscillation sensor of said sensor arrangement are placed in the measuring transducer in such a way, that: a measuring transducer sensitivity, S ACT , with which a measured variable to be registered, is converted into a corresponding signal variable of the first and/or second primary signal, referenced to a theoretical sensitivity, S MAX , at a maximum measuring length corresponding to the oscillatory length, and a signal amplitude, A ACT , of the primary signals actually achieved during operation, referenced to a theoretically maximum possible signal amplitude, A MAX , at the location of maximum oscillation amplitude, fulfill the condition: A ACT A MAX · S ACT S MAX ⁢ = ! ⁢ Max .
