1. A sensor assembly, comprising:
an enclosure housing having a first opening in a first side of the enclosure and a second opening in a second side of the enclosure;
a first passageway in fluid communication with the first and second openings;
a solid-state sensor positioned within the first passageway, the solid-state sensor comprising:
a first sensor positioned at a first axial position in the first passageway;
a second sensor positioned at a second axial position in the first passageway; and
a flow deflector positioned at a third axial position in the first passageway that is between the first and second axial positions, the flow deflector extending into the first passageway so as to constrict the first passageway;
wherein the flow deflector includes a first recess on a first side of the flow deflector and a second recess on a second side of the flow deflector; and
wherein the first sensor is positioned adjacent to the first recess and the second sensor is positioned adjacent to the second recess.
