Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a pressure sensor header for use with a pressure-sensing device. The pressure sensor header can be used in high-temperature environments. A pressure sensor header of the present disclosure can include a header shell, a sealing header glass that is sealed to the header shell, one or more electrical connections electrically isolated from the header shell by the sealing header glass, and a plate for sealing to a pressure-sensing device to be incorporated onto the pressure sensor header. The plate may include one or more ribs that allow for sealing of the plate to the header shell. The pressure sensor header may include a ribbed insert for sealing to the header shell and plate.

Certain implementations of the disclosed technology include systems and methods for providing header assemblies for use with pressure sensors in high-temperature environments. Certain example implementations include a header assembly. The header assembly can include a header portion having a first side and a second side, the header portion including one or more bores extending through the header portion from the first side to the second side. In certain example implementations, one or more platinum header pins are disposed within and extending through the one or more bores of the header portion. In certain example implementations, the header assembly can include one or more brazing portions corresponding to the one or more platinum header pins. In certain example implementations, the platinum header pins are configured for electrical communication with corresponding electrodes of a leadless transducer element.

A pressure transfer module for transfer of pressures, less equals 100 mbar, and suitable for high temperature applications, comprising an isolating diaphragm outwardly sealing a first pressure chamber; a transfer diaphragm outwardly sealing a second pressure chamber; and a pressure transfer path connecting the first pressure chamber with the second pressure chamber. The first and the second pressure chambers and the pressure transfer path are filled with a pressure transfer liquid, via which a pressure acting externally on the isolating diaphragm is transmitted to the transfer diaphragm. The pressure transfer liquid is under a pre-pressure, especially a pre-pressure of greater than or equal to 30 mbar, especially greater than or equal to 50 mbar. The isolating diaphragm and the transfer diaphragm under the pre-pressure assume a starting position, from which they are deflected by the pressure to be transmitted, and the starting positions of isolating diaphragm and transfer diaphragm lie as a function of size of the pre-pressure and size of the pressure to be transmitted within deflection ranges of the diaphragms, in which deflections from their starting positions have due to their formation a non-axisymmetric part, especially an antisymmetric part.
