Overview

The Mencom D16-COVERPLT is a Panel Interface Connector (PIC) cover plate designed for Size 16 housing cutouts, providing secure access to control panel internals without opening the enclosure. This device mounts externally to PLCs, computers, or programmable devices, enabling convenient pass-through connections for power, data, or signal cables while maintaining panel integrity. Constructed from epoxy-coated die-cast aluminum with a thermoplastic elastomer gasket, it meets UL Type 4, 4X, and 12 standards with an IP65 rating for dust and water resistance. The cover plate features stainless steel screws (Type 4/12) or 304/316 stainless steel screws (Type 4X) for corrosion resistance. With a footprint of 117mm x 57mm (4.61" x 2.24") and M5 screw mounting, it accommodates standard Size 16 housing configurations. Designed for industrial environments, this PIC cover plate eliminates the need to open control panels, enhancing shop floor safety and compliance with NFPA 70E standards. Mencom offers over 2000 PIC designs, with custom solutions available upon request.
