New HMI covers provide screen protection in harsh environments

Stahlin Enclosures has introduced Stahlin SolarShield HMI covers, providing the ultimate HMI screen protection in the harshest of environments.

The new Stahlin SolarShield HMI covers offer the most innovative, durable, non-metallic HMI covers for use with all enclosure material types. They are ideal for protecting HMI screens from UV and harsh environmental conditions and are the industry’s only non-metallic HMI covers with side shields.

Stahlin SolarShield HMI covers are ideal for demanding applications in non-hazardous industrial and commercial markets including industries such as oil and gas, equipment manufacturing, industrial machines, water/wastewater, marine, and food and beverages.

Extremely tough and durable, Stahlin SolarShield HMI covers can be used in both outdoor and indoor applications. They provide superior protection of the Human Machine Interface (HMI) screens from the sun, dust, water (rain, sleet and snow), sand, flames, oils, chemicals, grease, dirt, foreign objects, and other environmental conditions that cause corrosion and damage.

Stahlin SolarShield HMI covers fit standard 10in x 8in and smaller HMI screens and maintain a NEMA 4X rating of enclosures and screens when paired with a NEMA 4X HMI device. These universal covers can be used with either non-metallic or metallic enclosures.

Performance benefits of Stahlin SolarShield HMI covers:

• Simple and functional: they are easy to use. A hinged design includes supporting inner doors for hands-free use and better visibility of the HMI screen in the sun.
• Superior Protection: maintains NEMA 4 and 4X rating when paired with a NEMA 4 or 4X HMI device. Stahlin SolarShield HMI covers protect HMI screens and electrical equipment from corrosion and damage due to UV, oils, dirt, and sand, greatly reducing equipment replacement costs.
• Strength: impact resistant but light-weight opaque polycarbonate cover and base construction with UV inhibitors provide a long, dependable life in harsh conditions.
• Reliable sealing featuring a robotically applied foam-in-place seamless polyurethane gasket.

Stahlin SolarShield HMI covers come with a stainless steel hardware kit included and are padlock-able for increased security. Installation is simple and easy with the use of common tools.
