a stevenson screen screen is not called an instrument because it does not do any mechanical work and neither helps in taking weather recordings. it is just a container where various thermometers areb kept , protected from the sun's direct insolation so that we can exact readings. it only does the job of prtecting the instruments kept in it. it is not an instrument , it is a house for instruments.
AnemometerAnswer There can be several "boxes". The usual one is a Stevenson Screen, but automatic weather staions may also look like a ''Box". Anemometers are usually atop a separate mast which may or may not be attached to the "box".

The most common is the barometer, which measures atmospheric air pressure.

Stevenson Screen
Robert Stevenson did not invent anything. He was a Scottish civil engineer and is best known for his work in designing and overseeing the construction of lighthouses, most notably the Bell Rock Lighthouse in Scotland. Stevenson made significant contributions to the field of lighthouse engineering.
A Stevenson screen or instrument shelter is an enclosure to shield meteorological instruments against precipitation and direct heat radiation from outside sources, while still allowing air to circulate freely around them. It was designed by Thomas Stevenson (1818-1887), a British civil engineer and father of the author Robert Louis Stevenson.
A Stevenson screen typically houses a thermometer, a hygrometer, and a barometer. The thermometer measures temperature, the hygrometer measures humidity, and the barometer measures air pressure. These instruments are commonly used in weather stations to collect data on these three key weather elements.
Instruments which are used to measure temperature and Humidity should be kept inside "stevenson screen". Its a wooden box to shade from direct sunlight, Its painted white to reflect sunlight, It has vents to allow free flow of air. The stevenson screen should be located away from trees and buildings which could affect the temperature!

The sides of a Stevenson Screen are louvered to allow air to circulate through the Stevenson's Screen easily.
to prevent heat radiation and damage by people or animals
In observataries,the thermometers are kept in a wooden box with good ventilation and air movement.This box is called stevenson's screen
because it is
