Why Choose the ILME CHO32L Hood?
The ILME CHO32L, manufacturer reference CHO 32 L, is a robust C-Type metallic multipole connector hood designed for demanding industrial electrical connections. Featuring 2 locking pegs, a size 77.62 interface and a side cable entry with Pg36 adapter, it provides a secure enclosure for compatible ILME inserts and connector assemblies.
Manufactured from die-cast aluminium with a protective coated finish, the CHO32L is designed to withstand the mechanical and environmental demands of industrial machinery, automation equipment and electrical installations. Its side-entry configuration allows the cable to exit parallel to the connector interface, making it particularly useful where installation height or cable routing space is restricted.
When correctly assembled with compatible ILME components, the CHO32L connector system can achieve IP65, IP66 and IP69 protection. The hood also supports a wide operating temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C, making it suitable for reliable service across a broad range of industrial environments.

Heavy-Duty Protection for Industrial Connector Assemblies
Industrial multipole connector hoods protect inserts, contacts and conductor terminations while providing a secure interface between cables and mating connector housings. Metallic hoods are particularly well suited to machinery and factory environments where connectors may be exposed to mechanical stress, dust, moisture and repeated connection or disconnection.
The ILME CHO32L combines a robust aluminium enclosure with a side-entry Pg36 cable interface and 2-peg locking arrangement. When paired with the appropriate insert, cable gland and mating housing, it provides a durable detachable connection solution for carrying multiple power, control or signal circuits through a single industrial connector assembly.
