Abstract
A differential pressure sensor includes a case, a first and a second pressure sensing element, a first and a second pressure introduction passage, and a differential pressure determining element. The first and second pressure sensing elements work to respectively sense a first and a second pressure. The first and second pressure introduction passages are provided to respectively introduce the first and second pressures to the first and second pressure sensing elements. The differential pressure determining element works to determine a differential pressure as the difference between the first and second pressures sensed by the first and second sensing elements. The first and second pressure sensing elements have the same shape and size and are symmetrically arranged in the case with respect to a reference. The first and second pressure introduction passages also have the same shape and size and are symmetrically positioned in the case with respect to the reference.
