Why Choose the ILME CAO10L21 Hood?
The ILME CAO10L21 (CAO 10 L21) is a heavy-duty rectangular connector hood from the ILME C-TYPE series, designed for industrial multipole connector assemblies. It uses the size 57.27 enclosure format and features a high-construction design that provides additional space for cable termination and routing.
The hood is equipped with 2 pegs for secure coupling with compatible ILME lever-locking housings and incorporates a Pg21 side cable entry. The side-entry arrangement is particularly useful where cables need to run parallel to the mounting surface or where installation height above the connector must be minimised.
The aluminium CAO10L21 provides IP65, IP66 and IP69 protection when correctly assembled with compatible ILME connector components. Its -40 to +125 °C operating temperature range, robust construction and RAL 7040 grey finish make it well suited to machinery, automation and industrial electrical installations.
