PIR Sensor Housing with XLR port HD-SR501

thingiverse

I created this straightforward enclosure for a pir sensor, providing ample space for a XLR chassis mount connector. This allows you to run a long xlr cable and securely fasten the sensor at its end. The design will accommodate an Neutrik D Series hole, making it theoretically compatible with any of the d-series range. I employed a Male XLR Chassis mount in this project. I'm also a strong proponent of utilizing threaded Brass inserts for screw holes. They last significantly longer than direct screwing into printed parts. This part is specifically designed to utilize 2 x M3X6X4 inserts, which can be obtained from ebay at £1.50 for approximately 100 units. To melt them in place, a soldering iron is used. If you prefer not to use these inserts, I've included all the CAD files, enabling you to remix and adapt as needed.
