Sensor device for a physical quantity in a device
First Claim
1. Sensor device (3) for measuring a physical quantity in a device, whereby an emitted sensor signal for the adjustment to the actual measuring range of the quantity can be scaled by means of an evaluation electronic element (9), characterized in that before the assembly into the device the sensor signal exhibits characteristics which differ significantly from the normal sensor signal of ready-to-operate sensor device, and that the sensor signal of the installed sensor can set in the first scaling of the sensor to the normal characteristics.

Abstract
The sensor values (s) of a sensor device (6) exhibit, in the delivered condition, sensor values in a delivered scale that are reduced by about 50%, which document at the same the condition at the time of delivery. After the installation in a device, an initialization and justification process of the sensor device is started on crossing of the threshold values (t), in course of which the delivered scale (ds) is converted into a normal operating scale (os).
