Pressure sensor with contoured mating face

Abstract:

A pressure sensor assembly and method of manufacturing the same are provided. The pressure sensor assembly includes a contoured sensing insert. The contoured sensing insert includes an outer sensing insert having an open interior through-hole and a top contoured surface configured to be secured at least partially within the fluid flow container. The top contoured surface has a surface contour corresponding with an interior wall contour of the fluid flow container. The contoured sensing insert also includes an inner sensing medium defined within the through-hole of the outer sensing insert. The inner sensing medium defines a conforming contoured surface at least substantially matching the surface contour of the top contoured surface. A corresponding method of manufacturing is also provided.
