Abstract: An individual accumulator for a high-pressure component of a high-pressure fuel guide of a common rail fuel injection system. The individual accumulator is equipped with a pressure sensor, and the common rail fuel injection system is equipped with a source of high pressure and a fuel injector, which has a fluid connection with this source of high pressure via the high-pressure fuel guide, for injecting the fuel into a working chamber of an internal combustion engine. The pressure sensor is designed as a strain sensor.
