Temperature Sensor Enclosures for Wall Mounting

Submitted by charliemic on Sun, 01/12/2013 - 12:21

Hi all,

Does anyone know where I can get some low-cost enclosures for temperature sensors? I am running Cat6 cable down the wall in 16x16mm mini trunking to each temperature sensor (see image- note I have now got some 4-way terminal blocks!)

I suggested this a while ago. OK, those are not quite what you want but a few neatly drilled holes or slots to allow the air to circulate should work fine, or you could even glue the sensor to the back of the front plate to pick up the surface temperature. The response time would be slow of course, but probably little different to an ordinary thermostat.
