Stahlin SolarShield HMI Covers provide the ultimate HMI screen protection in the harshest of environments. The new, patented SolarShield HMI Covers offer the most innovative, durable, non-metallic HMI Covers for use with enclosures of all 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 that provide easy, hands-free viewing regardless of the angle of the sun.

The SolarShield Covers are ideal for demanding applications including oil and gas, equipment manufacturing, industrial machines, water/wastewater, marine, and food and beverage. Extremely tough and durable, the 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, snow), sand, oils, grease, dirt, foreign objects, and other environmental conditions that cause corrosion and damage.

The cover’s impact resistant, light-weight opaque polycarbonate cover and base construction with UV inhibitors provides long dependable life in harsh conditions, while the robotically applied foam-in-place seamless polyurethane gasket ensures a reliable seal. Installation of the SolarShield is simple and easy with the use of common tools and the included stainless steel hardware kit.
