I purchased a temperature monitoring system from insmart and need some sensor enclosures to mount the sensors on walls so that they are nicely enclosed.

Anyone got any recommendations.

The sensors are not very large 30mm x10mm x 15mm

Thanks

Found something

Finally found something at farnell but the enclosure is not ventillated to allow air flow to the sensor. Anything more purpose made for a temperature sensor would be appreciated.

They're 1-wire temperature sensors, probably DS18S20PAR (2wire). Neat. A room temperature sensor should be about 4' from the floor and slightly off the wall about 1" to avoid updrafts.

I plan on using a couple of these for one wire sensors. Have to poke my own holes though for venting.

Maybe you can order them without the label, and make your own.
