Measurement device for determining a process variable
A measurement device ( 1 ) for determining at least one process variable with a sensor element ( 2 ) for measuring the process variable and with an electronic component ( 3 ), the sensor element ( 2 ) being connected to the electronic component ( 3 ) via at least one electrical conductor ( 4 ) has a connection, made to be as reliable as possible, between a sensor element and the electronic component due to the provision of an adapter unit ( 5 ). The adapter unit ( 5 ) guides at least one electrical conductor ( 4 ). Furthermore, the adapter unit ( 5 ), the sensor element ( 2 ) and the electronic component ( 3 ) are configured and matched to one another such that the adapter unit ( 5 ) set a minimum distance between the sensor element ( 2 ) and electronic component ( 3 ).
1. A measurement device for determining at least one process variable,
comprising:
at least one electronic component,
a sensor element for measuring a process variable,
an end of said sensor element facing said at least one electronic component having an essentially cylindrical section that is located centrally in a middle of said end and is elevated relative to a remainder of said end,
said sensor element being connected to the at least one electronic component via at least one electrical conductor, and
an adapter unit,
the adapter unit guiding at least a section of the at least one electrical conductor and being located at least partially between said sensor element and said at least one electronic component,
wherein said adapter unit, said sensor element and the at least one electronic component are configured and matched to one another such that said adapter unit sets a minimum distance that is the closest that said sensor element and the at least one electronic component can approach each other,
wherein an end of said adapter unit facing said sensor element has a stop surface in the form of a ring segment of less than 360°, and
wherein said stop surface encompasses said essentially cylindrical section of said end of said sensor element facing said at least one electronic component.
2. A measurement device in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the at least one electronic component is located in a partial component which is at least partially potted, wherein a sleeve surrounds at least a part of said sensor element, and wherein said sleeve is connected to said partial component.
3. A measurement device in accordance with claim 1 , wherein said sensor element is adapted for measuring at least one of pH, chlorine content and oxygen content.
