Abstract: 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).

Abstract: A sensor of the type for liquid and/or gas analysis, which is connected to a measuring and/or evaluating system or, respectively, to a higher-ranking control system and has a sensor housing. The circuit for the collecting, processing and transmitting measured values to the measuring and/or evaluating system or to the control system (19) are provided in the sensor housing (2). This circuit has analog sensor electronics (3), an analog-digital converter (14) for converting the detected analog measured values into digital measured values, a processing unit (15) and communication device (17) for processing and transmitting the digital measured values to the measuring and/or evaluating system or to the control system (19) according to a standard communication protocol of process technology.
