Why Choose the ILME CHIS16 EMC Bulkhead Mounting Housing?
The ILME CHIS16, manufacturer reference CHIS 16, is a heavy-duty EMC bulkhead mounting housing with two locking levers for industrial rectangular connector systems in the 77.27 size format. Part of the specialised ILME EMC series, it provides a fixed panel-mounted connection point for applications where dependable mechanical protection and electromagnetic compatibility are important.
The CHIS16 incorporates two locking levers manufactured from stainless steel and polyamide, providing secure engagement with compatible ILME hoods equipped with four locking pegs. A conductive elastomer gasket supports electromagnetic shielding continuity and environmental sealing when the complete connector assembly is correctly installed and locked.
ILME specifies the CHIS16 for IP65, IP66 and IP69 protection, with a wide operating temperature range from -40 °C to +125 °C. Its combination of EMC-specific construction, robust locking and panel mounting makes it particularly suitable for industrial automation, machinery and electronic control installations exposed to electromagnetic interference.

EMC-Optimised Connectivity for Industrial Equipment
Electromagnetic interference can disrupt sensitive signals and electronic control equipment in industrial environments. ILME EMC enclosures are designed to support electromagnetic compatibility through conductive enclosure interfaces and specialised sealing components. The CHIS16 uses a conductive elastomer gasket to help maintain electrical continuity around the enclosure interface when installed as part of a compatible EMC connector system.
The bulkhead configuration creates a fixed connection point on machinery or control equipment, while the two-lever locking mechanism provides secure mating with a compatible four-peg hood. This combination makes the CHIS16 particularly suitable for shielded power, control and signal connections in electrically noisy industrial environments.
