Why Choose the Ilme CTF16R Female Wedge Insert?
The Ilme CTF16R is a 16-pole + PE female industrial connector insert from the Ilme CT series, featuring dependable screw terminal connections and an incorporated terminal block. Specifically configured for right-side mounting, it provides a robust multipole interface for industrial machinery, automation equipment and electrical control systems.
Rated at 16 A and 230/400 V, the CTF16R combines 16 female contacts with a protective earth connection in the established size 77.27 format. Its screw terminals accept conductors from 0.75–2.5 mm² (AWG 18–14), providing a familiar and secure termination method for industrial power and control wiring.
The right-hand wedge configuration allows the CTF16R to be selected alongside compatible CT-series components when building specialised connector arrangements. Turned silver-plated contacts, a 600 V UL/CSA rated voltage and enclosure-dependent protection up to IP66/IP69 support reliable integration into demanding industrial connector systems.
