Why Choose the Ilme TCHC16 Thermoplastic Cover?

The Ilme TCHC16 is a durable T-TYPE thermoplastic protection cover designed to protect compatible industrial multipole connector enclosures when the connection is not in use. Manufactured for the Ilme size 77.27 enclosure format, it provides a practical protective closure for demanding machinery, automation and industrial connection applications.

The TCHC16 features four locking pegs for secure engagement with a compatible enclosure locking system and incorporates an eyelet for convenient retention. Its main body is manufactured from polypropylene (PP), providing a lightweight, electrically insulating and corrosion-resistant alternative to metallic connector accessories.

When correctly attached and locked to compatible components, the TCHC16 provides an IP65 degree of protection. With an operating temperature range from -40 °C to +90 °C, it is suitable for a wide variety of industrial environments where unused connector interfaces require dependable protection against dust and water ingress.

Reliable Protection for Unused Industrial Connector Interfaces

Its polypropylene construction, four-peg closing arrangement and IP65 protection make the TCHC16 a practical accessory for industrial machinery and automation installations. The incorporated eyelet also allows the cover to be retained near the connector, helping ensure it remains readily available whenever the connection is opened.
