Abstract: Provided is a diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) sensor adapter. The sensor adapter may include two chambers. The first chamber may include a tortuous pathway for fluid and/or air flow. The second chamber may be fluidly sealed or separated from the first chamber and may house electrical components. The tortuous pathway may include varying stepped segments having a decreasing diameter from a proximal toward a distal end. For example, a first segment at the proximal end may have a larger diameter than a second, middle segment. An entrance to a third segment from the second segment may have a greatly reduced size. The tortuous pathway may further include a vent inlet positioned at approximately the same height as the entrance but requiring an approximate 180° turn therebetween. The inlet may extend into two opposite substantially horizontal portions that each lead to a vent outlet on opposite sides of the sensor adapter. The turn from the inlet to the substantially horizontal portions may be approximately 90°.
