Abstract
Disclosed is a sensor housing having a flexible sensor tube containing a transmission fluid and having sealed ends, and an optical sensor connected to an optical fiber. The optical sensor is adapted to measure a pressure of a fluid and this pressure is communicated to the flexible sensor tube, so that the pressure is transferred by the transmission fluid to the optical sensor. The sensor can measure temperature and/or pressure, and the sensor can be located remote from the sensor housing or within the sensor housing.
