1. A measuring assembly for sensing gaseous media, comprising:

  • a) an electrical measuring cell having an inlet opening for introducing gas thereto and an outlet for dismissing gas therefrom for generating electrical signals in accordance with the concentration and/or composition of the gaseous medium introduced to said measuring cell;

    b) a signal processing circuit connected to said measuring cell for receiving and evaluating said electrical signals, said circuit being arranged on a circuit board;

    c) a receptacle including a base plate and a cover plate between which said measuring cell is located;

    d) means for electrically and mechanically connecting said circuit board to the said measuring cell in a releasable manner so that said measuring cell with said circuit board is disposed between said base plate and said cover plate whereby said measuring cell may be readily replaced with another;

    e) said cover plate comprising a pressure plate constructed to press said measuring cell against said base plate with a uniform pressure distribution; and

    f) a pressure spring connected in a retaining position to said receptacle to abut an adjacent surface of said pressure plate and to impose a defined tension on a said pressure plate and movable from said retaining position to permit the replacement of said measuring cell.
