A board mount assembly. The assembly comprises a panel, a board mount and a circuit board. The panel is generally arranged in a plane. The board mount has an attachment portion operably connected to the panel and parallel thereto, and has a support portion extending from the first portion at a non-perpendicular angle relative to the plane of the panel. The circuit board has a first standoff engaged with the board mount.

An average temperature sensor designed for use in an air conditioning unit, wherein the air conditioning unit has a high pressure region and a low pressure region and a method for making an average temperature measurement. The average temperature sensor senses the average temperature of air flowing in the high pressure region and comprises a device for conveying a flow of air that is in fluid communication with the high pressure region. A temperature sensor is disposed in a temperature sensing relationship to the device for conveying the flow or air. The high pressure in the high pressure region induces a flow of air in the device for conveying a flow of air. This flow of air flows from the high pressure region to the low pressure region and is at the average temperature of the air in the high pressure region. The device for conveying the flow of air includes a plurality of air inlets selectively disposed within the high pressure region to receive a sample flow of air that has a temperature that is representative of the average temperature of the air flowing in the high pressure region.
