two housing parts 31 33 of the electronic angle sensor 17 form an interior space 37 of the angle sensor 17 in which the sensor unit 39 and the analysis unit 41 are located both the sensor unit 39 and the analysis unit 41 are configured as integrated switching circuits 43 the sensor unit 39 is located in the lower housing part 33 of the angle sensor 17 the lower housing part 33 being opened on its side pointing in the direction of the indicator 7 such that the sensor unit 39 pointing in the direction of the indicator 7 closes the interior space 37 of the angle sensor 17 the sensor unit 39 is thus visible and accessible from outside of the angle sensor 17 there is a measuring distance 45 between the sensor unit 39 pointing in the direction of the indicator 7 and the indicator 7 of the indicator instrument 1 fig4 show a capacitive electronic angle sensor 17 this comprises the upper housing part 31 the lower housing part 33 which is shown as semitransparent in fig4 the output interface 25 which is configured in the form of two data lines 21 the sensor unit 39 as well as the cover glass 13 which has the black print 19 a sealing element 47 between the upper housing part 31 and the cover glass 13 is provided at the connection point 35 which is located in the not visible opening of the cover glass 13 the sealing element 47 is advantageous to reduce or even to prevent a penetration of dust and fluids behind the cover glass 13 further individual measuring sectors 49 of the.
