A seal assembly includes: a seal element; a part to be sealed; and a measuring arrangement for monitoring an aging of the seal element. The seal element is held on the part so as to provide a contact stress between the seal element and the part. The seal element has a contact face with which the seal element bears against the part. At least one measuring component of the measuring arrangement is integrated in each case into the seal element and into the part. The contact face of the seal element has a surface geometry with depressions.

A sensor element includes: a supporting body; and a sensor body, the sensor body being planar in shape, being made of an elastic material, and having a first surface and a second surface coated so as to be electrically conductive. The sensor body includes a measuring segment and a fastening segment. A layer thickness of the fastening segment is greater than a layer thickness of the measuring segment.

A sensor element includes: a supporting body; and a sensor body, the sensor body being planar and being formed of an elastic material, a first surface and a second surface of the sensor body each having an electrically conductive coating. The supporting body and the sensor body are integrally formed.
