Pressure Sensor System for Charge Air Load Control
An assembly for measuring the air flow in an air intake duct of an internal combustion engine. The assembly includes a housing with an inlet opening, an outlet opening, a channel with an inner wall defining a predetermined cross-sectional area and a closure member that is movably mounted in the channel between a closed and opened position. A first annular chamber is situated upstream from the closure member and a second annular chamber is placed downstream of the closure member. Each chamber has an inner chamber wall with a number of apertures that are in fluid communication with the channel. A first pressure sensor is connected to the first chamber for measuring a pressure in the first chamber, a second pressure sensor being connected to the first chamber and to the second chamber for measuring a difference in pressure in the first and second chamber.
PRESSURE SENSOR HAVING AN ANTISTATIC SURFACE, AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURE
A pressure sensor having an anti-adhesion layer, and a method for manufacturing such a pressure sensor. In this context, the pressure sensor includes a pressure sensor element, which is accommodated and/or situated in a housing of the pressure sensor. In order to protect the pressure sensor element, at least one filling material is provided, which is introduced into the housing and covers the pressure sensor element at least partially. The surface of the at least one filling material is configured to have an antistatic effect.
