FUEL INJECTOR

The invention relates to a fuel injector (10), in particular a common-rail injector, with an injector housing (11) in which a high-pressure chamber (15) is formed, which can be supplied with pressurized fuel via a supply bore (19) arranged in the injector housing (11), with at least one injection opening (12) formed in the injector housing (11) and connected at least indirectly to the high-pressure chamber (15) for injecting fuel into the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, with an injection member (16) that releases or closes the at least one injection opening (12), and with a measuring device (30) for at least indirectly detecting the pressure in the high-pressure chamber (15) or the supply bore (19), wherein the measuring device (30) is designed to detect an elastic deformation of a deformation region (27) arranged in operative connection at least indirectly with the supply bore (19) or the high-pressure chamber (15), and wherein the measuring device (30) has a sensor element (32) which is connected to the surface of the deformation region (27) via an adhesive connection (34). According to the invention, it is provided that at least the region of the adhesive connection (34) between the deformation region (27) and the sensor element (32) is enclosed by a housing element (40) which seals at least the region of the adhesive connection (34) in a media-tight manner against the external environment.
