A pressure pickup comprises: A diaphragm seal module having a diaphragm seal platform and a separating diaphragm, which is secured to the diaphragm seal platform to form a pressure chamber; a temperature sensor for registering a diaphragm seal temperature; a sensor module having a pressure measuring cell; a pressure line between the pressure chamber and the measuring cell, for loading the measuring cell with the pressure being measured; a housing, which is spaced from the diaphragm seal module and has a housing chamber in which an electronic circuit is arranged, which has inputs for signals of the pressure measuring cell and of the temperature sensor; and a canal, which extends between the housing chamber and the temperature sensor, wherein at least one electric line runs through the canal for coupling of the temperature sensor with the circuit, wherein the canal and the housing chamber form an enclosed volume, which is explosion-protected relative to the environment.

Pressure pickup with temperature compensation

A measurement pickup is provided offering a high measure of safety and having a measurement pickup housing, a sensor element arranged in the measurement pickup, at least one connection element closing the measurement pickup housing, and an excess-pressure protection device, especially a burst disk or a pressure relief valve, integrated in the connection element, which serves to effect a pressure equalization with an environment of the measurement pickup in the case of a pressure overload in the measurement pickup.
