MHOE 48 L40 ILME Hood 2 pegs s/entry M40 Size 104.62 Extreme

Why Choose the Ilme MHOE48L40 E-Xtreme® Side Entry Hood?

The Ilme MHOE48L40 is an E-Xtreme® heavy-duty connector hood engineered for multipole electrical connections in aggressive and demanding industrial environments. Its large size 104.62 format accommodates compatible Ilme connector inserts, while the two stainless-steel locking pegs provide a robust mating interface for suitable lever-equipped connector housings.

Manufactured from E-Xtreme® aluminium, the MHOE48L40 is specifically designed for enhanced resistance in harsh operating conditions. Ilme specifies E-Xtreme® enclosures with resistance demonstrated by 2,000 hours of salt-spray testing to EN ISO 9227, making this enclosure family particularly suitable where corrosion resistance is an important consideration.

The hood incorporates a single M40 side cable entry for convenient 90-degree cable routing and provides IP66 / IP69 protection in the appropriate assembled configuration. A wide -40 °C to +125 °C temperature range and mechanical life of at least 500 mating cycles further support reliable use in demanding machinery, automation and industrial connection systems.

E-Xtreme® Protection for Aggressive Industrial Environments

Ilme E-Xtreme® enclosures are engineered for connector installations exposed to aggressive environmental conditions. The MHOE48L40 combines E-Xtreme® aluminium construction with stainless-steel locking pegs and verified 2,000-hour salt-spray resistance, providing a durable enclosure solution where corrosion resistance and long-term mechanical reliability are important.

The M40 side entry allows cables to be routed parallel to machinery or equipment surfaces, while the two locking pegs engage with the lever mechanism of a compatible mating enclosure. When correctly assembled with suitable components, the resulting connector system can provide high environmental protection while remaining readily detachable for installation and maintenance.

Typical Applications

• Industrial machinery operating in aggressive environments.
• Factory automation and production equipment.
• Coastal and corrosion-prone industrial installations.
• Equipment exposed to demanding environmental conditions.
• Conveyor and material handling systems.
• Industrial power, control and signal connections.
• Detachable multipole connections requiring enhanced corrosion resistance.
