A sensing arrangement for a medical device includes a housing having a rigid portion and a flexible portion, a collar of the flexible portion attached to an exterior of the rigid portion such that a stem of the rigid portion extends into an interior of the flexible portion. A sensing element is positioned at least partially within a passageway of the rigid portion, with at least one wire extending from the sensing element through the passageway and into the interior of the flexible portion. Front and rear flanges protrude from the flexible portion and are adapted to allow the sensing arrangement to be attached into an aperture in a wall of the medical device. The stem of the rigid portion may be positioned between the collar and front flanges of the flexible portion, such that the stem does not extend through the aperture of the wall of the medical device. There are also provided a seal, a removable component, a medical device and a system.
