Why Choose the ILME CHO10X C-TYPE Hood?
The ILME CHO10X is a robust industrial multipole connector hood designed for secure cable connections in machinery, automation and industrial electrical systems. Part of the established ILME C-TYPE enclosure range, this hood combines a size 57.27 interface with two integral locking levers and a side cable entry.
Manufactured from aluminium alloy, the CHO10X provides a durable enclosure for compatible ILME multipole connector inserts. Its double-lever locking system enables secure mating with compatible peg-equipped housings, while the enclosure is specified for IP65, IP66 and IP69 protection when correctly assembled with suitable mating components and cable-entry accessories.
The Pg16 side cable entry makes the CHO10X particularly suitable where cables need to approach the connector laterally rather than from above. The hood is supplied without a gasket and offers a compact, heavy-duty solution for detachable power, signal and control connections in industrial equipment.
