The ILME CK03CXA, manufacturer designation CK 03 CXA, is a compact plastic protective cover with a single locking lever designed for male inserts in ILME size 21.21 industrial connector assemblies. Part of the ILME CK series, it provides a practical way to protect connector interfaces when they are disconnected in machinery, automation and industrial electrical installations.
Designed specifically for male inserts, the CK03CXA incorporates a single polyamide locking lever and a retaining loop for convenient attachment to the connector assembly. The cover is manufactured in RAL 7035 grey and uses durable insulating materials suitable for demanding industrial environments.
The CK03CXA provides IP44 protection in its standard configuration and can achieve IP66, IP67 and IP69 protection when used with the compatible ILME CKR 65 accessory. With an operating temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C, this lightweight size 21.21 cover is suitable for industrial machinery and equipment exposed to challenging operating conditions.
Protective covers help prevent contaminants and accidental contact from affecting industrial connector interfaces while connectors are uncoupled. The ILME CK03CXA is designed to close over compatible male inserts, providing a compact protective solution for machinery, control equipment and industrial electrical installations.
The single-lever closing system makes the cover quick to secure and release, while the retaining loop helps keep it attached to the installation when the connector is in use. Its durable insulating construction and broad operating temperature range make it particularly suitable for industrial applications where reliable connector protection is required.
