Why Choose the EMAS EBM16GD17 16 Pole 16 A Surface-Mount Side Entry Housing with 2 Metal Handles?
The EMAS EBM16GD17 is a robust 16-pole wall-type empty connector housing designed for surface-mounted industrial multipole connections. Part of the EMAS EBM Series, it features a durable metal body, side cable entry and two metal locking handles, providing a secure enclosure for compatible 16-pole connector inserts used in machinery, automation and control applications.
The EBM16GD17 is designed around the 16-pole, 16 A EBM connector configuration and provides IP65 protection in the closed position. Its powder-coated metal construction helps provide mechanical durability, while the side-entry arrangement allows practical lateral cable routing in machine and panel installations.
Supplied as an empty housing without an insert, the EBM16GD17 supports EMAS universal insert configurations appropriate to the housing size. Its two metal handles provide secure mechanical engagement with a compatible mating connector, making this housing particularly suitable for machine builders and panel builders requiring a robust, detachable multipole interface.
