Why Choose the Ilme CHC48LG Metal Connector Cover?
The Ilme CHC48LG is a robust metal protective cover for heavy-duty rectangular connectors, designed to protect compatible Ilme connector interfaces when they are disconnected. Part of the established Ilme C-TYPE series, this cover combines die-cast aluminium construction with a single locking lever, NBR gasket and retaining loop for dependable use in industrial machinery and automation installations.
Designed specifically for the larger size 104.62 enclosure format, the CHC48LG uses one rigid locking lever to engage compatible hoods equipped with two locking pegs. The integrated gasket helps maintain a sealed interface when the cover is secured, protecting connector components against dust, moisture and environmental contamination.
The CHC48LG provides an IP65 degree of protection when correctly assembled and is manufactured from epoxy-polyester powder-coated die-cast aluminium in RAL 7040 grey. With stainless-steel locking components and a broad -40 °C to +125 °C operating temperature range, it is engineered for reliable service across demanding industrial environments.

Reliable Connector Protection for Industrial Equipment
Heavy-duty rectangular connectors may be exposed to dust, moisture, debris and accidental mechanical contact whenever machinery is disconnected for servicing, transportation or equipment changeovers. The Ilme CHC48LG provides a dedicated protective barrier over the connector interface, helping preserve the condition of contacts and associated connector components while the mating connector is removed.
The combination of a rigid locking lever, NBR gasket and rugged aluminium body enables the CHC48LG to remain securely fitted to compatible size 104.62 connector assemblies. Its retaining loop also allows the cover to remain attached to the installation while open, reducing the likelihood of it being misplaced during routine machine operation or maintenance.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery and production equipment.
- Factory automation and control systems.
- Heavy-duty multipole connector assemblies.
- Material handling and conveyor equipment.
- Machine tools and manufacturing systems.
- Production lines with removable electrical connections.
- Electrical equipment requiring protection of disconnected connector interfaces.
