Abstract
A device is described for supplying and metering a fluid for medical purposes, at least comprising one pump for pumping the fluid and at least one element through which the fluid is conveyed. At least one recess is provided in the at least one element, which is tightly covered by a sensor component composed of a pressure sensitive material, wherein a material of the at least one element is harder than that of the sensor component. The device also has a force sensor with which pressure-induced changes of the sensor component in a region of the at least one recess can be measured.
