A gas sensor, whose purpose is to determine a physical property of a measuring gas, e.g., to determine the concentration of a gas component or the temperature of an exhaust gas. The gas sensor includes a sensor element arranged in a metal housing which is sealed by at least one sealing element arranged in a metal receptacle. The metal receptacle is affixed to the housing. The sealing element surrounds the sensor element in a centered position along its longitudinal extension L or on its half facing the measuring gas.

Gas sensor and method for production thereof

A sensor for measuring a physical property of a measuring gas, in particular the oxygen concentration or the temperature in the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine in a motor vehicle, has a housing, a measuring element whose end section protrudes from the housing, a connector plug mounted on the end section, and a housing shell covering the end section and connector plug with a radial clearance, one shell end of the housing shell being attached to the housing and the other shell end being sealed. To prevent electromechanical breakage in the sensor in the event of extreme vibration stresses or accelerations of the vehicle, the free space within the housing shell is completely filled with a non-conductive granulate.
