Why Choose the ILME CHV16 Hood?
The ILME CHV16 is a robust top-entry industrial connector hood designed for compatible ILME heavy-duty multipole connector inserts and housings. Featuring 4 locking pegs, a PG21 threaded cable entry and the standard 77.27 enclosure size, it provides a durable enclosure solution for industrial machinery, automation equipment and control systems.
Designed for applications where the cable enters from the top of the connector, the CHV16 provides an efficient way to route conductors while protecting the insert and terminations inside the connector assembly. Its four-peg configuration is designed to engage with compatible ILME housings equipped with locking levers, providing secure mechanical coupling while allowing the connector to be disconnected when servicing is required.
The CHV16 combines a durable metal enclosure with a PG21 cable entry and ILME's widely used 77.27 format. When correctly assembled with compatible inserts, housings, seals and cable-entry components, it provides a dependable connector enclosure for demanding industrial installations.

Reliable Top-Entry Protection for Industrial Connections
Industrial connector hoods provide mechanical protection for connector inserts, crimp or screw terminations and incoming cables while forming the removable half of a heavy-duty multipole connector assembly. A top-entry design is particularly useful where the cable approaches perpendicular to the connector mating face or where installation space favours vertical cable routing.
The ILME CHV16 combines this top-entry arrangement with a PG21 threaded entry and four locking pegs. When paired with a compatible twin-lever housing and appropriate connector components, it creates a secure yet serviceable electrical interface for machinery and industrial automation systems.
Typical Applications
- Industrial multipole connector assemblies.
- Machine building and automation equipment.
- Electrical control panels and machinery.
- Production and manufacturing equipment.
- Motor, actuator and equipment connections.
- Modular machinery requiring removable electrical interfaces.
