Why Choose the Ilme CAV24.221 Hood?
The Ilme CAV24.221, supplied under SKU CAV24221, is a heavy-duty C-TYPE industrial connector hood designed for reliable multipole electrical connections in machinery, automation and industrial control applications. It features four locking pegs, Ilme size 104.27 and a double top cable entry with adapters for 2 × Pg21, providing flexible cable routing for compatible Ilme connector assemblies.
The CAV24.221 uses a high-construction aluminium design that provides useful internal space for connector wiring and cable termination. Its two Pg21 top entries allow two cables to approach the connector vertically, while the four locking pegs are designed to engage with the corresponding levers of a compatible Ilme housing for secure and serviceable mechanical coupling.
Designed for demanding industrial installations, the CAV24.221 provides IP65 / IP66 / IP69 protection when correctly assembled with compatible components. It has a RAL 7040 grey finish, weighs 338 g and is specified for an operating temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C.

Reliable Protection for Industrial Connections
Industrial connector hoods protect compatible connector inserts while providing controlled entry points for associated cabling. The Ilme CAV24.221 combines a high-construction size 104.27 enclosure with two Pg21 top cable entries, allowing two cable runs to approach vertically and simplifying wiring arrangements where multiple cables need to terminate at a single heavy-duty connector assembly.
The hood's four locking pegs engage with the corresponding levers on a compatible Ilme housing to create a secure mechanical connection. This arrangement helps keep the connector firmly coupled during operation while still allowing convenient disconnection for machinery installation, servicing, maintenance or equipment replacement.
Typical Applications

- Factory automation and production equipment.
- Control panels and electrical cabinets.
- Motor and actuator connection systems.
- Conveyor and material handling equipment.
- Industrial power, control and signal connections.
- Heavy-duty multipole connector assemblies requiring dual cable entry.
