Abstract
A tube is provided with an indentation long enough to receive a sensor bulb and having a nominal curvature corresponding to the outer curvature of the sensor bulb whereby, when secured by a clamp, which is suitably tightened, at least one of the members will deform to the curvature of the other member thereby achieving area contact between the members.
