  • Patent number: 6575040
    Abstract: A pressure measuring system has a line through which a fluid (4) flows, the line (3) having a central line section (5) in which, on a flattened outer side (6) of the line (3), a diaphragm is provided. The movements of the diaphragm, which are characteristic of pressure changes, are transmitted to a pressure sensor. In this case, the diaphragm is nondetachably connected to a protrusion (10) which points away from the line (3) and has an extension (12) which is oriented substantially transversely with respect to the longitudinal alignment of the line section (5) and, in a mechanical and simultaneously detachable way, acts on a force sensor as pressure sensor. A pressure measuring system is therefore provided which can be used for reconditioning in the autoclave sterilizer.
