Hammond 1597D5MTC DIN 5 Blank Terminal Cover, PC-ABS

The 1597D5MTC is a blank Italtronic terminal insert for DIN 5 enclosures in the 1597DM Series of DIN rail mounted enclosures. The series accessory table and the part drawing both list it as the DIN 5 terminal cover "Blank, Closed", while the part page long description reads "terminal insert blank, open", so compare the drawing with your requirement before ordering.

The insert is PC-ABS with a UL94 V-0 flame rating and measures 3.43 in x 0.54 in x 0.79 in (87 mm x 14 mm x 20 mm). It ships at 0.01 lbs (0.00 kg) and is RoHS and REACH compliant.

DIN group numbers in the 1597DM range refer to the number of terminals on each side of the enclosure. The DIN 5 terminal-cover family also includes the 1597D5MTC6 with holes and the 1597D5MTCKO with punch-out holes, all sharing the same 87 x 14 x 20 mm size. The DIN 5 top-cover drawing lists these terminal covers with the grey Module 5 enclosure. Hammond notes that some accessories are not compatible with all enclosures in a DIN size group and recommends confirming fit on the enclosure drawing.

The 1597D5MTC suits panel builders and OEM engineers who need to blank off terminal positions on a DIN 5 housing for PCBs and terminal blocks. Some chemicals can damage or weaken plastic, so check the manufacturer's Chemical Resistance Statement before using solvents, thread-locking compounds or cutting fluids near the part.
