July 3, 2024
Stahlin’s patented SolarShield HMI Covers provide the ultimate Human Machine Interface (HMI) screen protection in the harshest environments.
These are the industry’s most innovative and 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 now available in an expanded range of sizes – 10″ x 8″, 16″ x 11″, and 20″ x 14″- offering broad application flexibility.
Available in both Opaque and Clear options, 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 beverage. The Opaque configuration provides superior protection of HMI screens from the sun, and both Opaque and the new Clear configurations provide protection from wind-blown dust, water, oils, chemicals, grease, flames, foreign objects, and other environmental conditions that cause corrosion and damage.
Universal covers can be used with either non-metallic or metallic enclosures.
Among the many performance benefits of Stahlin SolarShield Clear and Opaque 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 and greatly reduce equipment replacement cost.
- Strength: Impact resistant but light-weight polycarbonate cover and base construction with UV inhibitors provide long dependable life in harsh conditions.
- Reliable sealing featuring a robotically applied foam-in-place seamless polyurethane gasket.
Stahlin SolarShield HMI Covers come with stainless steel hardware kit included and are padlock-able for increased security. Installation is simple and easy with the use of common tools.
