Abstract

A pressure sensor device for internal pressure monitoring in a hose, preferably an infusion hose, that is used for fluid transmission and that rests directly or indirectly on a pressure sensor housing. The hose is elastically deformable and connected via a contact side to a pressure transmission element located in the pressure sensor housing. The pressure transmission element transmits internal pressure changes absorbed via the contact side to a compressive force sensor for measurement. The contact side can have an elliptical shape, and the pressure transmission element can have a funnel-shaped extension, to make the pressure sensor device as robust as possible in terms of measurement accuracy, and independent of fluctuations in temperature and associated changes in material states.
