The transducer (1) has a housing (4) provided with a separating diaphragm that separates process media (3a, 3b) from contact media (7a, 7b). The contact media conveys pressure (Pa, Pb) of the process media determined by the separating diaphragm to pressure-sensing elements (6a, 6b). The housing, the separating diaphragm and seals (9a, 9b) form pressure chambers (10a, 10b). A pressure chamber (14) is provided on a side of the pressure chambers (10a, 10b) opposite to the seals, and a pressure-sensing element (15) is arranged in the pressure chamber (14). Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a method for monitoring a state of a pressure transducer (2) a pressure sensor comprising a pressure transducer.
