Hygienic design cable entry
19 June 2019
The new hygienic design cable entry plate KEL-DPZ 16 from icotek fits outbreaks that are standardised for 16-pin heavy-duty connectors.

The new size 16 allows an easy and quick cable entry. Up to 34 cables, with diameters of 1.5 - 16.2mm, can be inserted and double-sealed in a confined space. Cables without plugs are quickly and safely inserted in control cabinets and housings and with degrees of protection up to IP66 (certified according to DIN EN 60529: 2000-09).
Certifications such as ECOLAB, EN 45545-2 HL3, EN45545-3 E45 / EI30, DNV-GL and others are granted. Pierced and no longer required membranes are closed with ST-B plugs again. Introduced cables are automatically sealed and strain relieved. The hygienic design does not create any dirt niches.
The KEL-DPZ consists of a polyamide body which is entirely encapsulated with elastomer. The KEL-DPZ series from icotek is halogen and silicone free. Free samples and certificates are available from the manufacturer.
