Hood connector

The invention relates to an environmentally sealed plug-in connector housing formed from a base body () having a fastening flange () molded thereon. The fastening flange () is associated with a sealing element () that is compressed in a sealing manner between the fastening flange () and an assembly surface (). In order to ensure the sealing of fastening bores () provided in the fastening flange (), sealing sleeves () are molded onto the sealing element (), which sealing sleeves extend into the fastening bores () and at least completely pass through the latter. A fastening screw inserted into a fastening bore () can in this way seal with its screw head the fastening bore () by means of the sealing sleeve () that is compressed by the screw head.

Environmentally sealed plug-in connector housing

Disclosed is a closing cap for media-tight sealing of a plug face of a plug-and-socket connector, in particular a round plug-and-socket connector, wherein the closing cap can be detachably fixed to a plug-and-socket connector housing, wherein the closing cap is configured, such that a further closing cap of identical construction can be detachably fixed to the closing cap. The closing caps can be stored, for example stacked one on top of the other, on a plug-and-socket connector housing in a switchgear cabinet. This simplifies storage in that when a closing cap is removed from one connector it may be stored on a closing cap of an adjacent connector.
