Can Anybody suggest me application notes or documentation for designing enclosure for humidity sensor?

Waterproof? Dust proof? Fast measurements?

Dust can be blocked by covering the sensor with teflon tape (white plumbers tape)  
Teflon lets humidity through, but blocks direct condensation and dust.  
I couldn't notice a significant reaction speed difference after covering a bathroom sensor with Teflon. Some humidity sensors already come with the white Teflon cover or with a clip-on part.

There is a lot of solutions available on. Look up weather station enclosure. This is a starting point: [https://www.instructables.com/Build-a-Weather-Station-Enclosure/](https://www.instructables.com/Build-a-Weather-Station-Enclosure/)
