Why Choose the ILME CDCM16 Male 16-Pole Crimp Insert?
The ILME CDCM16 is a robust male multipole connector insert designed for reliable electrical connections in industrial machinery, automation and control systems. Featuring 16 poles plus protective earth, a 16 A rated current and crimp termination, it provides a compact and dependable interface for detachable heavy-duty industrial connector assemblies.
As part of the ILME CDC series, the CDCM16 uses removable crimp contacts that are terminated to individual conductors before being inserted into the connector. This approach provides secure mechanical and electrical connections while allowing the appropriate contact to be selected for the conductor size used in the installation.
With an ILME insert size of 66.16 and a 16-pole plus PE configuration, the CDCM16 provides high connection density for carrying multiple power, control and auxiliary circuits through a single connector. Its male configuration is designed to mate with the corresponding compatible female insert and to fit suitable ILME hoods and housings.

Reliable Crimp Connectivity for Industrial Equipment
Crimp termination creates a strong electrical and mechanical connection by compressing the contact barrel around the stripped conductor. When the correct contact and crimping tool are used, this method provides consistent conductor retention and excellent resistance to vibration, making it particularly suitable for industrial machinery and automation equipment.
The ILME CDCM16 combines removable crimp contacts with a high-density sixteen-pole-plus-earth configuration. When assembled with suitable contacts, a compatible hood or housing and the corresponding female insert, it creates a robust detachable electrical interface that simplifies machine installation, commissioning and maintenance.
