I got the part number wrong in the last post sorry.
I still think a direct temperature to voltage sensor is better for the OP. Fiddling about with thermistors and micros etc is all very well, but perhaps a little complex. Don't forget that a thermistor needs calibrating and a gaggle of circuitry (albeit this can be as simple as a resistor), it also doesn't give a voltage/current reading directly related to temperature. Also the response to temperature will not be linear, except for a narrow range of temperatures depending on the sensing circuit.
I'm assuming there is no automation, ie a computer looking at the sensors giving alarms etc and you want to just look at the temperatures. If you want alarms and what not, then the thermistor/micro approach would be better.
Otherwise:

Some cable. I suggest some shielded three or four core cable. Connect the shield to ground, one core to the temp sensor and the other to a 5V supply.
Something like:

a 5V supply
Miscellaneous connectors and terminals.
Sorry the part numbers etc were from an australian site....I just had a quick fish about.
You could pot the sensor and wiring in some epoxy so you'd just have the cable poking out of the blob of epoxy and run it down to the panel meter+PSU.
A more professional job would have, as others suggest, a network of sensors (saving on cabling costs) hooked to a computer or micro which could give alarms and what not.......it depends on what you want.
