Why Choose the Ilme CSHM16N SQUICH® Male Insert?
The Ilme CSHM16N is a male industrial connector insert from the Ilme CSH series, featuring SQUICH® spring terminal connection without tools. This N-version is designed as the second insert section for a high-density assembly, with 16 poles + PE numbered 17–32; when combined with the corresponding first section, the complete configuration provides 32 poles plus protective earth.
Ilme SQUICH® technology uses integrated actuators and spring terminals to simplify conductor termination. Prepared conductors are inserted directly into the terminal positions and secured through the actuator mechanism, eliminating conventional terminal-screw tightening and helping reduce wiring time in machine building, control-panel assembly and industrial automation applications.
Rated at 16 A and 500 V with a 6 kV impulse withstand voltage, the CSHM16N accepts conductors from 0.14–2.5 mm² (AWG 26–14). The insert is intended for size 77.62 connector assemblies and uses turned silver-plated contacts, polycarbonate insulation and a robust design rated for at least 500 mating cycles.

Fast SQUICH® Connection for High-Density Industrial Wiring
SQUICH® spring-terminal technology is designed to make industrial connector wiring faster and more consistent. Rather than tightening individual terminal screws, the installer inserts each correctly stripped conductor and operates the associated actuator, allowing the spring mechanism to establish and maintain the electrical connection.
The CSHM16N is specifically identified by its 17–32 pole numbering, allowing it to operate as the second section in a high-density 32-pole + PE arrangement. This makes it particularly useful where numerous power, control or auxiliary circuits need to pass through a compact, detachable industrial connector interface.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery and machine tools.
- Factory automation and production equipment.
- High-density multipole connector assemblies.
- Packaging and materials-handling machinery.
- Electrical control and distribution systems.
- OEM machinery and modular production equipment.
