Abstract
The sensor module includes: a sensor housing; at least one measuring transducer arranged at least partially in the sensor housing for registering at least one measured variable and for producing at least one primary signal influenced by the measured variable; as well as sensor electronics arranged within the sensor housing and connected with the measuring transducer for converting the primary signal delivered from the measuring transducer into a sensor signal. Further provided in the sensor electronics is an energy supply unit, which includes at least one energy storer arranged within the sensor housing for storing energy to be converted in the measuring system. The transmitter module is coupled to the sensor module and includes a transmitter housing and a transmitter electronics accommodated in the transducer housing and electrically coupled with the sensor electronics for converting the sensor signal delivered from the sensor module into measured values representing the at least one measured variable.
