Why Choose the ILME CGCP10FX Temporary Protection Cover?
The ILME CGCP10FX is a lightweight temporary dust and transport protection cover designed for compatible ILME industrial connector housings in size 57.27. It provides a practical way to protect an open connector housing from dust and general contamination during storage, transportation, machinery assembly and commissioning.
Designed specifically for fixed housings, including compatible bulkhead and surface-mount housings, the CGCP10FX provides temporary protection while the connector is not mated. Its plastic construction makes it a convenient solution for machine builders, panel builders and equipment manufacturers that need to protect exposed connector interfaces during production and transport.
The CGCP10FX is matched to the 57.27 enclosure size and can be additionally secured using 2 × M6 screws where required. ILME identifies this FX version as the cover for fixed housings, while the corresponding MB version is intended for mobile hood applications.

Practical Temporary Protection for Industrial Connector Housings
Industrial connector housings can remain exposed during machine manufacture, panel assembly, transportation and commissioning. A temporary protection cover helps prevent dust and general contamination from reaching the open connector interface before the mating connector is installed, helping keep components protected throughout handling and installation.
The ILME CGCP10FX provides this temporary protection for compatible 57.27 size fixed housings. Although designed for use with ILME high-protection housing systems, the temporary cover itself provides IP20 protection and should not be treated as a substitute for a permanent sealed cover where the completed connector must maintain a higher specified environmental protection rating.
Typical Applications
- Temporary protection of unused industrial connector housings.
- Machine-building and equipment manufacturing.
- Electrical control panels during assembly and commissioning.
- Factory automation and production equipment.
- Protection during machinery storage and transportation.
- Compatible ILME size 57.27 bulkhead and surface-mount housings.
