Abstract
In order to improve a sensor assembly comprising a sensor which can be fixed in position on a functional unit and has a sensor housing, in which a sensor element with evaluation electronics is arranged, in such a manner that as simple and universal a fixing of the sensor as possible on the functional unit is feasible it is suggested that the sensor assembly comprises a sensor holder which can be brought into a position following the sensor housing in longitudinal direction and can be detachably connected to the sensor housing in this position by means of form-locking elements and that the sensor be fixable on the functional unit by means of the sensor holder.
