Sensor insbesondere zur Messung der Viskosität und Dichte eines Mediums

A sensor which has a bending reed and a piezoelectric resonator. Due to excitation by the piezoelectric resonator, the bending reed can be excited to vibration in a measurable medium. In this context, the vibration frequency and the damping of the bending reed are a function of the density and the viscosity, respectively, of the measurable medium. This can be measured by a piezoresistive element, and thus the density and viscosity of the measurable medium are ascertained.
