Abstract: A sunshield to protect an equipment housing from solar heat and allow cooling from external air flow is disclosed. The sunshield includes a main plate configured to be positioned to cover a side of the equipment housing. A vent in the main plate allows air flow through the main plate to the equipment housing. A shutter is rotatable between an open position allowing air flow through the vent, and a closed position blocking air flow through the vent. A biasing mechanism provides force to bias the shutter in the closed position. The force is overcome by a predetermined level of external air flow on the shutter to rotate the shutter to the open position.
