The present invention provides a pressure sensor module capable of improving work efficiency during assembly.

The pressure sensor module detects a fluid pressure on the basis of a differential pressure between a reference pressure and the fluid pressure, and includes: a housing; a sensor element that can contact each of the reference pressure and the fluid pressure; a support member that supports the sensor element and is held in the housing; a first pressure passage that guides the fluid pressure to a first contact surface of the sensor element; and a second pressure passage that is sealed from the first pressure passage and guides the reference pressure to a second contact surface of the sensor element. The support member is a structure that is formed by integrating an elastic material section exerting sealing performance on the first pressure passage and the second pressure passage and capable of being elastically deformed and a hard material section, rigidity of which is higher than the elastic material section.

An electronic sensor includes a housing having a distal end configured to be exposed to a flow of a fluid media opposite a proximal end configured not to be exposed to the fluid media. A chamber and connected passageway are disposed within the housing. The passageway is connected at one end to the chamber and connected at another end to an opening disposed at the distal end of the housing. The opening is configured to be in fluidic communication with the fluid media. A pressure sensor and a first temperature sensor are disposed within the chamber. A viscous gel is disposed within the chamber, the viscous gel separating on a first side both the pressure sensor and the first temperature sensor apart from the passageway on a second side of the viscous gel. The chamber can include a non-smooth surface to increase viscous gel adhesion.

A sensor includes an airfoil body, a heater element, and a temperature probe. The airfoil body defines a sensor axis, an insulating cavity, and extends between a leading edge and a trailing edge of the airfoil body. The heater element extends axially within the airfoil body and is positioned between the leading edge and the trailing edge of the airfoil body. The temperature probe extends axially within the airfoil body, is positioned between the heater element and the trailing edge of the airfoil body, and is separated from the heater element by the insulating cavity to limit thermal communication between the temperature probe and the heater element. Gas turbine engines, methods of making sensors, and methods of thermally separating temperature probes and heater elements in sensors are also described.
