Why Choose the ILME CAV16L21 Hood?
The ILME CAV16L21 is a robust heavy-duty rectangular connector hood designed to provide dependable cable-side protection for industrial machinery, automation and electrical installations. Part of the ILME C-TYPE series, this high-construction hood features two locking pegs, a Pg21 top cable entry and a size 77.27 interface for compatible ILME connector inserts.
The CAV16L21 provides a secure enclosure around the cable-side termination of compatible multipole connector assemblies. Its two-peg closing arrangement is designed to engage with compatible lever-equipped ILME housings, while the straight top-entry configuration allows the cable to route directly away from the connector interface.
With IP65, IP66 and IP69 protection when correctly assembled, plus a broad -40 °C to +125 °C operating temperature range, the CAV16L21 is suitable for demanding industrial environments. Its rugged construction and high-profile design provide a reliable solution for detachable electrical connections on machinery and production equipment.
