Why Choose the Ilme CHC16LG Metal Cover?
The Ilme CHC16LG is a robust C-TYPE metal protective cover with one lever and gasket, designed for compatible Ilme heavy-duty connector enclosures in the size 77.27 format. It protects an unused connector interface while providing a secure lever-operated closure for demanding machinery, automation and industrial electrical installations.
Manufactured from die-cast aluminium and finished in RAL 7040 grey, the CHC16LG incorporates a stainless-steel and polyamide lever together with an NBR gasket. The single-lever arrangement is designed for compatible hoods with two pegs, providing convenient operation while maintaining secure mechanical closure.
The CHC16LG has an IP65 degree of protection and is designed for operation from -40 °C to +125 °C. A built-in loop allows the cover to be retained with the associated connector assembly, making it a practical protective accessory for industrial equipment that is regularly connected, disconnected or serviced.

Secure Gasketed Protection for C-TYPE Connectors
Protective covers help shield disconnected industrial connector interfaces from dust, moisture and accidental contamination. The CHC16LG combines a gasketed cover with a lever-operated closure, allowing a compatible connector interface to be protected securely whenever its mating connector is removed.
The single-lever mechanism engages compatible two-peg hoods, while the NBR gasket provides the sealing interface required for the cover's rated protection. Its integrated loop also enables the cover to remain attached to the installation, helping prevent loss during machine servicing, transport or connector changeovers.
