Why Choose the Ilme CAP16LS2 Surface-Mounting Housing?

The Ilme CAP16LS2 is a robust surface-mounting industrial connector housing designed for heavy-duty multipole electrical connections in machinery, automation and control applications. Featuring one locking lever, two Pg21 cable entries and an integrated metal protective cover, it provides a secure fixed connection point for compatible Ilme connector inserts and mating hoods.

Designed for installation directly onto machinery, panels and industrial equipment, the CAP16LS2 combines a durable enclosure with a practical single-lever locking arrangement. The locking lever engages with the corresponding peg on a compatible Ilme hood, allowing the connector assembly to be securely retained during operation while remaining straightforward to disconnect for servicing or equipment changes.

The two Pg21 cable entries provide additional flexibility for routing industrial wiring into and through the housing. When the mating connector is disconnected, the integrated metal cover helps protect the connector interface against accidental contact, dirt and environmental exposure, making the CAP16LS2 a practical choice for demanding fixed industrial installations.
