Abstract
A pressure sensor manifold is provided that resolves issues caused by accumulated particles and bubbles to improve print head performance. The pressure sensor manifold includes a fluid inlet, a fluid outlet, and a dome-shape cavity connecting with both the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. The fluid inlet has a first interior cross-section, and the fluid outlet has a second interior cross-section. The dome-shape cavity has an apex. A line that is tangential to the apex passes through a plurality of points on both the first interior cross-section of the fluid inlet and the second interior cross-section of the fluid outlet.
