Why Choose the ILME CHI32L Bulkhead Mounting Housing?
The ILME CHI32L, manufacturer reference CHI 32 L, is a heavy-duty bulkhead mounting housing with one locking lever designed for compatible ILME rectangular connector inserts and hoods in the 77.62 size format. Part of the ILME C-TYPE series, it provides a robust fixed connector interface for industrial machinery, automation systems and electrical control equipment.
The CHI32L uses a durable die-cast aluminium housing with a single locking lever for secure engagement with a compatible hood equipped with two locking pegs. Its bulkhead design mounts directly to a panel or equipment surface and is supplied without a cable entry, making it suitable for fixed equipment-side connector installations.
An NBR sealing gasket supports environmental protection when the connector system is correctly assembled and locked. With its large 77.62 format and rugged C-TYPE construction, the CHI32L provides a dependable enclosure solution for applications requiring high-density or multi-insert heavy-duty connections.
