Why Choose the ILME CHI16C Bulkhead Housing?
The ILME CHI16C, manufacturer designation CHI 16 C, is a robust bulkhead mounting housing for heavy-duty industrial connectors. Designed for the ILME size 77.27 connector format, it incorporates four locking pegs for secure engagement with compatible mating hoods or covers equipped with the corresponding lever system.
The CHI16C provides a fixed connector mounting point on electrical panels, control cabinets, machinery and other industrial equipment. Its metal construction is designed for the mechanical demands of industrial connector installations, while the bulkhead configuration allows compatible multipole inserts to be mounted securely at the equipment interface.
With its size 77.27 format and four-peg locking arrangement, the CHI16C is suited to detachable power, control and signal connections where reliable mechanical coupling is required. When correctly assembled with compatible ILME components, the enclosure system provides environmental protection for demanding industrial applications.

Reliable Fixed Connection for Industrial Equipment
Bulkhead housings form the fixed side of a heavy-duty connector assembly, allowing electrical connections to be brought through a machine, panel or enclosure wall while retaining the convenience of a detachable multipole interface. The ILME CHI16C provides this function for compatible size 77.27 connector inserts and associated enclosure components.
The housing's four locking pegs are designed to engage with the levers of the appropriate mating enclosure. This provides secure mechanical retention during operation while allowing the connector assembly to be disconnected when equipment requires installation, servicing, replacement or transportation.
