Why Choose the ILME CHO16X Hood?
The ILME CHO16X is a robust industrial multipole connector hood designed to protect compatible rectangular connector inserts in machinery, automation and electrical installations. As part of the established ILME C-TYPE enclosure series, it provides a dependable connection solution for demanding industrial environments where secure mechanical coupling and environmental protection are required.
This hood features two locking levers for secure mating with compatible ILME housings and a Pg21 side cable entry for convenient cable routing. Its size 77.27 format supports a wide selection of compatible ILME inserts, making the CHO16X a versatile enclosure component for power, signal and control connections.
With protection ratings of IP65 / IP66 / IP69 when correctly assembled with compatible components, the CHO16X helps protect electrical connections against dust and water ingress. Its durable construction, stainless-steel and polyamide lever components and wide -40 °C to +125 °C operating temperature range make it suitable for challenging industrial applications.
