Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to field device housing assemblies and field devices that include the housing assemblies. One embodiment of the field device housing assembly includes a main housing, a cover having a proximal end connected to the main housing, a transparent panel and a retainer ring. An interior wall of the cover includes a threaded section that is concentric to a central axis, and a flange extending radially inward from the interior wall toward the central axis. The transparent panel is received within a socket defined by the interior wall and the flange. The retainer ring is secured to the threaded section of the interior wall. The transparent panel is clamped between the retainer ring and the flange.
