ABSTRACT:
A pressure-difference sensor, which is asymmetrical by design, includes a measuring apparatus having a first half-chamber with a first volume V1, which is sealed by a first separating membrane having a first membrane stiffness E1, and a second half-chamber with a second volume V2, which is sealed by a second separating membrane having a second membrane stiffness E2, wherein the first half-chamber is separated from the second half-chamber by a pressure sensitive element, especially a measuring membrane, and the first half-chamber is filled with a first transfer liquid having a first coefficient of thermal expansion α1and the second half-chamber is filled with a transfer liquid having a second coefficient of thermal expansion α2. For making the temperature-dependent, separating-membrane pressure-error dP symmetrical, the design is so embodied that a first product of the first membrane stiffness, the first volume and the first coefficient of thermal expansion is essentially equal to a second product of the second membrane stiffness, the second volume and the second coefficient of thermal expansion (E1*V1*α1=E2*V2*α2), wherein, additionally, at least one factor of the first product deviates, by design, from the corresponding factor of the second product.
