A sensor assembly includes a first structure and a second structure disposed radially outwardly of the first structure. Also included is a sensor body extending through the first and second structures, the sensor body having first and second ends, the second end disposed in an ambient environment. Further included is a sensor mounted to the sensor body proximate the second end, the sensor configured to detect a characteristic of a target disposed within the first structure. Yet further included is a first sealing assembly configured to operatively couple the sensor body to the second structure and to accommodate movement of the sensor body. The first sealing assembly includes a mounting body, a radial seal, a slider plate and a slider plate retainer disposed in a recess of the mounting body and in abutment with the slider plate.
