A fluidic component consisting of silicon/glass, for example, is arranged in an elastomeric shaped part made of silicon rubber, for example, the contour of which is matched to the outer contour of the component and to the inner contour of a holder. The elastomeric shaped part is chamfered towards the fluidic component on its pressure side. When the holder is assembled the elastomeric shaped part is deformed by a projection provided on the mating part and is put under uniformly distributed internal tension, after which the elastomeric shaped part surrounds the fluidic component to its full height. This “floating mounting” means that there are no unacceptable local tension peaks and no deformation of the component. The mounting is sealed against the fluid even when the fluid pressure fluctuates repeatedly from a very low level to several 100 bar. |
