Reliable Protection for C-TYPE Industrial Connectors
Protective covers help preserve connector interfaces while equipment is disconnected by reducing exposure to dust, moisture and other contaminants. This is particularly valuable on industrial machinery where connector housings may remain exposed during maintenance, transport, equipment changeovers or periods of disconnection.
The Ilme CHC16L combines rugged aluminium construction with a two-peg interface designed for compatible C-TYPE enclosures. Its eyelet also allows the cover to remain associated with the installation, helping reduce the likelihood of it being misplaced during servicing or connector operation.
