CAOW16L21 Ilme Hood 2 pegs side entry PG21 Size 77.27
ILME CAOW16L21 W-TYPE size 77.27 high-construction heavy-duty connector hood with two locking pegs, Pg21 side cable entry and IP65, IP66 and IP69 protection for industrial connector applications.
Why Choose the ILME CAOW16L21 W-TYPE Hood?
The ILME CAOW16L21, also identified as CAOW 16 L21, is a robust heavy-duty industrial connector hood from the ILME W-TYPE enclosure series. Designed for size 77.27 connector assemblies, it features two locking pegs and a Pg21 side cable entry, providing a secure and practical enclosure for compatible ILME connector inserts used in machinery, automation and industrial electrical systems.
The CAOW16L21 features a high-construction design, providing additional internal space for cable termination and routing. Its two-peg closing arrangement is designed to mate with compatible lever-equipped ILME housings, while the side-entry configuration allows the cable to approach the connector horizontally where machinery layout or available installation space makes this preferable to a top-entry arrangement.
With IP65, IP66 and IP69 protection ratings when correctly assembled, the CAOW16L21 is engineered for demanding industrial environments where electrical connections require protection against dust and water ingress. Its size 77.27 enclosure format and Pg21 cable entry make it a versatile solution for heavy-duty industrial connector installations.

Reliable Side-Entry Protection for Industrial Connections
Heavy-duty connector hoods protect electrical connector inserts and cable terminations while providing a secure cable interface between machinery, control systems and industrial equipment. The ILME CAOW16L21 combines a high-construction enclosure with a Pg21 side cable entry, making it particularly useful where cables need to run alongside equipment rather than extending vertically from the connector.
The two locking pegs engage with compatible lever-equipped ILME housings to create a securely retained connector assembly. When correctly assembled with suitable mating components and cable-entry hardware, the IP65, IP66 and IP69 protection ratings make the CAOW16L21 suitable for demanding environments where dust and water ingress protection are important.
