Why Choose the ILME CK 03 I Bulkhead Housing?
The ILME CK 03 I is a compact thermoplastic bulkhead mounting housing designed for compatible ILME industrial multipole connector inserts. Manufactured in the size 21.21 format, it provides a practical panel-mounting solution for machinery, automation, control equipment and other industrial electrical installations.
The CK 03 I incorporates one locking lever for secure coupling with a compatible peg-equipped mating hood. Its straight bulkhead design mounts directly to an equipment panel or enclosure and has no cable entry, making it suitable for connector interfaces where the wiring remains inside the machine or control enclosure.
Manufactured from insulating thermoplastic material and finished in light grey RAL 7035, the CK 03 I provides IP44 protection in its standard configuration and can achieve IP66, IP67 and IP69 protection when used with the ILME CKR 65 gasket in the appropriate assembled system. A wide -40 °C to +125 °C ambient temperature range and mechanical life of at least 500 cycles make it suitable for demanding industrial environments.

Compact Bulkhead Mounting for Industrial Connector Systems
Bulkhead housings such as the ILME CK 03 I provide a fixed mounting point for detachable electrical connections on machinery, control cabinets and other industrial equipment. The housing is installed directly onto the equipment panel, allowing a compatible connector insert to form the fixed side of the connection while the mating hood can be conveniently connected or removed.
The compact size 21.21 format supports numerous compatible ILME insert technologies, including selected power, signal and industrial data solutions. Its insulating thermoplastic construction, single-lever locking system and optional enhanced sealing with the CKR 65 gasket make the CK 03 I a versatile enclosure for space-conscious industrial connector installations.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery and automation equipment.
- Control cabinet and enclosure connector interfaces.
- Manufacturing and production machinery.
- Robotics and automated material handling systems.
- Industrial power, control, signal and data connections.
- Compact panel-mounted multipole connector installations.
