The assembly further includes a housing having first and second portions connected to one another, the housing defining an interior portion configured to encapsulate the conduit, at least a portion of the elongate body of the sensor, and the sensor mount.
Physical quantity measuring device with improved cap sealing
A physical quantity measuring device includes a cylindrical case, a cap member, and a sealing member. The cap member covers a circumferential portion of a through-hole of the cylindrical case, while the sealing member provides a seal between the through-hole and the cap member. The cap member is pivotally supported by an attachment target portion of a lid member so that the cap member is rotatable between a first orientation and a second orientation. A cap member engagement portion is insertable into an engagement-portion insertion hole in the first orientation and is engageable with the attachment target portion in the second orientation. A linear member of the sealing member is located, in the first orientation, in a region in a rotation direction from the first orientation to the second orientation. The linear member prevents loss of the cap member and is replaceable, together with the seal member, if damaged.

Temperature compensated differential pressure system
A temperature compensated differential pressure system is provided. The system includes a pair of flanges affixed together each having a flange diaphragm therein, wherein a plurality of capillary tubes extends between the pair of flanges and a pair of opposed remote diaphragm housings. The remote diaphragm housings include a remote diaphragm therein, wherein the remote diaphragm displaces a fill fluid in pressure capillaries to displace each flange diaphragm to detect a differential pressure between each location of the remote diaphragm housings. A compensating capillary extends from the remote diaphragm housings to an opposing flange diaphragm, wherein the compensating capillary is not in operable communication with the remote diaphragms. As such, any fluctuation in fill fluid volume of the compensating capillaries due to temperature fluctuations is applied to an opposing flange diaphragm to cancel temperature effects from the differential pressure determination.
