Zusammenfassung:	An isolation valve (1) has an electrically-actuated solenoid valve (32), at least one port (14 ) having a port extension (14a), and a sensor assembly (13) coupled to the port extension (14a). The sensor assembly (13) includes a printed circuit board (40), an integrated circuit (44) disposed on the circuit board (40), and at least one pressure sensor (18) coupled to the port extension (14a) to measure a vapor pressure in the port extension (14a). In one embodiment, a single sensor assembly (13) can monitor pressure at two or more ports (14, 16). By integrating the sensor assembly (13) into the isolation valve (1), the valve (1) has a compact assembly that is easy to install in a vapor control system. L'invention concerne un vanne d'isolement (1) possédant une électrovanne (32), au moins un orifice (14) pourvu d'une extension (14a), et un ensemble capteur (13) accouplé à l'extension (14a) de l'orifice. L'ensemble capteur (13) comprend une carte de circuit imprimé (40), un circuit intégré (44) disposé sur la carte de circuit (40) et au moins un capteur de pression (18) accouplé à l'extension (14a) de l'orifice afin de mesurer la pression de la vapeur dans ladite extension (14a). Selon un mode de mise en oeuvre, un ensemble capteur unique (13) peut surveiller la pression au niveau d'au moins deux orifices (14, 16). En intégrant l'ensemble capteur (13) à la vanne d'isolement (1), la vanne (1) comporte ainsi un ensemble compact qui est facile à installer dans un système de régulation de vapeur.
