Abstract
A sensor device includes a moisture module that includes a sensor element for detecting moisture of a fluid medium flowing in a flow direction and a protective membrane screening the sensor element. The sensor device includes a housing, in a measuring chamber of which the moisture module is at least partially situated, and that includes a protective tube extending into the flowing fluid medium in an axial direction perpendicular to the flow direction, the protective tube is designed for flow of the fluid medium into at least one inlet opening, through an inflow path, into the measuring chamber counter to the axial direction, and out of the measuring chamber via an outflow path in the axial direction and an outlet opening, where, with respect to a direction of gravity, the openings are at a bottom of the protective tube.
