    摘要: There is provided a sensor device for measuring fluid and fluid conduit properties, and a method for activating the sensor device. The sensor device comprises an outer capsule for providing fluid-tight containment to an interior compartment of the sensor device in a closed position. The outer capsule comprises a first capsule portion and a second capsule portion. An aperture is located in the second capsule portion and fluidly connects the inner compartment to an exterior of the outer capsule. A mounting bracket is disposed within the inner compartment, the mounting bracket connects the first capsule portion to the second capsule portion and provides structural integrity and pressure resistivity for the outer capsule. At least one pressure sensor is constrained between the mounting bracket and an inner surface of the second capsule portion and is aligned with the aperture of the second capsule portion.
