I am mesuring on a copper tube (sensor attached with tie wraps so the flat side makes a good connection). The temps i am measuring are between 12 and 22 °C. The tube and the sensor are insulted with tube insulation (its on my heat pump). (ambient temp is 25°C) The 2 sensors are +-10cm apart so

I have exactly the same setup in some places - a DS18S20 on a copper tube, wrapped with tape and under insulation. When mounting temperature sensors it's usual to put down a little blob of conductive paste: http://www.resol.de/index/produktdetail/kategorie/7/id/50/sprache/en between the

You also must take into account the wiring. The wires go to the sensor, up to the die itself, and are made of good heat conducting material. Use as narrow wire as possible, and stuff a reasonable amount of the wire under the insulation. I mean the wire not just comes in a plain line, but is
