PRESSURE-TIGHT ENCAPSULATED DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE SENSOR

A pressure difference sensor includes a capsule, which has a ceramic capsule body. The capsule has a transducer seat in its interior, wherein there is arranged in the transducer seat a semiconductor pressure measuring transducer core, which has a measuring membrane body and at least one support body. The measuring membrane body is connected pressure-tightly with the at least one support body, which has a pressure inlet opening. Ducts extend respectively from an outer surface of the capsule into the transducer seat, wherein the pressure inlet opening communicates with the first duct A side of the measuring membrane is contactable with a pressure through the pressure inlet opening, wherein the support body contacts a joint, which surrounds the first pressure inlet opening and the opening of the first duct into the transducer seat and is connected pressure-tightly with a wall of the transducer seat, and wherein a second side of the measuring membrane is hydraulically isolated from its first side and communicates with the second duct.
