A measurement chamber, and a device for measuring pressure in a fluid, the device including a coupling element, at least one pressure transducer and at least one measuring chamber that can be filled with a fluid. The measurement chamber is mechanically coupled to the measurement surface of the pressure transducer by a membrane. The measurement chamber has at least two connection points for a fluid flow. The at least one pressure transducer is arranged in the coupling element, and the at least one measurement chamber has two outer webs opposite each other, one of the webs engaging a clamping edge of the coupling element and the other web engaging a pressing roller. The pressing roller is rotatably supported and can be connected to the coupling unit in a force-closed manner.

The invention relates to a marker device and a tracking system for tracking the marker device, wherein the marker device comprises a rotationally oscillatable magnetic object and wherein the rotational oscillation is excitable by an external magnetic field, i.e. a magnetic field which is generated by a magnetic field providing unit 20, 31 that is located outside of the marker device. The rotational oscillation of the magnetic object induces a current in coils, wherein based on these induced currents the position and optionally also the orientation of the marker device is determined. This wireless kind of tracking can be carried out with relatively small marker devices, which can be placed, for instance, in a guidewire, the marker devices can be read out over a relatively large distance and it is possible to use a single marker device for six degrees of freedom localization.

A device and method for verifying the readiness of a building's fire sprinkler system. The device includes an adapter that is secured between the sprinkler pipe and the sprinkler assembly, a pressure switch to measure the fluid pressure in the fire sprinkler system, an indicator which notifies occupants if there is enough fluid pressure at the sprinkler assembly for the sprinkler to operate properly, and a power source for the pressure switch and indicator. During operation of the sprinkler system, water flows from the sprinkler pipe, through the adapter and into the sprinkler assembly.

A wireless pressure sensing unit (20) comprises a membrane (25) forming an outer wall portion of a cavity and two permanent magnets (26,28) inside the cavity. One magnet is coupled to the membrane, and at least one magnet is free to oscillate with a rotational movement. At least one is free to oscillate with a rotational movement. The oscillation takes place at a resonance frequency, which is a function of the sensed pressure, which pressure influences the spacing between the two permanent magnets. This oscillation frequency can be sensed remotely by measuring a magnetic field altered by the oscillation. The wireless pressure sensing unit may be provided on a catheter (21) or guidewire.
