Enclosures and Protective Sunshades

An instrument enclosure or shade covering the instrument will protect from severe weather, either extreme sunshine or sub-zero temperatures, and prevent damage to the instrumentation by airborne dirt particles settling, falling debris or even accidental breakage.

Parker can offer a single source supply for fully fitted packages that are ready to install on site. Manifold valves instruments (sourced or free-issued), fittings and heating systems can be pre-fitted by Parker’s assembly service, so when an enclosure arrives at the installation point it can be mounted straight on to a 2” NB pipe stand. The process and vent tubing can then be connected to the compression fittings and the instrument signal cable wired in. The system is then ready for commissioning and use. Single source supply of instrumentation products reduces procurement costs by simplifying the process of collation and source of individual components from many suppliers and reduces engineering costs after delivery by having a ready-to-install product.
