  • Patent number: 6070883
    Abstract: The invention relates to a sealing unit for a fuel pressure sensor for sealing an at least virtually flat sealing joint between the sensor and a component that carries it via a screw connection, wherein a round sealing washer with a central bore is disposed between the threaded bolt-shaped end of the sensor housing with its central sensor bore and the bottom of the threaded bore of the component with its central pressure fluid opening. A pin is formed onto the threaded bolt-shaped end of the sensor housing, which pin centers the sealing washer, fixing it in a positive and/or frictional, non-positive manner, and rises above an end face that serves as a bearing surface for the sealing washer. The pin ends in an end face and has a length that is shorter than the thickness of the sealing washer. A sealing unit is produced that assures a reliable sealing function and permits a simple installation and disassembly of the sealing washer while reclaiming the sealing washer in a sealing position.
