the present invention is a measuring cell comprising a base body . layered upon the base body is a measurement membrane having a first measuring element , a measurement device , and an intermediate membrane . the intermediate membrane is arranged between the measurement membrane and the base body , and a second measuring element is arranged thereon . when a pressure force is applied to the cell , the measurement membrane is directed outward and undergoes deformation with respect to the intermediate membrane as well as the base body . the deformation causes the measuring capacitance formed by the measuring electrodes to change according to the pressure applied .
