[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A differential pressure measuring arrangement having a differential pressure sensor made using thin film technology, which sensor comprises a metallic cylindrical diaphragm body with a tubular fastening portion and a pressure-sensitive measuring diaphragm, the measuring diaphragm having on one side a structure of successive layers comprising an electrically insulating layer, a thin metallic layer, in which patterns of measuring resistors are arranged in the regions of the measuring diaphragm where strain is intensive, and a final passivation layer, which leaves exposed the access points to metallic terminal areas of the measuring resistors whereinthe cylindrical diaphragm body (1) is arranged with a gastight bushing ring (5) in a cylindrical recess of a measuring cell body (4), forming a pressure chamber at the bottom of the cylindrical recess (16), in such a way that the side of the measuring diaphragm (7) having the measuring resistors (8) is facing the pressure chamber at the bottom,the measuring cell body (4) has on each pressure feeding side in each case an inner pressure space, which is formed by a concave recess which is closed off by a separating diaphragm (12, 13) and is connected to the diaphragm body (1) via in each case a pressure feeding duct (14, 15),the inner pressure spaces, including the pressure chamber at the bottom, are filled with a fluid diaphragm seal,the bushing ring (5) has contact pins (9), which are arranged in an insulated manner and are connected within the pressure chamber at the bottom to the metallic terminal areas (11) of the measuring resistors (8), andthe ends of the contact pins (9) remote from the pressure chamber at the bottom are connected to evaluation electronics.
