Why Choose the Ilme CDSHF42 SQUICH® Female Insert?
The Ilme CDSHF42 is a high-density 42-pole plus protective earth female connector insert designed for dependable multipole connections in industrial machinery, automation systems and control equipment. Part of the Ilme CDSH series, it combines a size 104.27 format with the convenient SQUICH® spring terminal connection system.
Rated at 10 A and 400 V, the CDSHF42 provides 42 female contact positions plus protective earth in a single heavy-duty rectangular connector insert. Its SQUICH® connection technology allows prepared conductors to be connected directly to integrated spring terminals, eliminating the need for separately purchased crimp contacts and conventional screw tightening.
The insert accommodates conductor cross-sections from 0.14–2.5 mm² and is engineered for reliable service in demanding industrial environments. With a 6 kV rated impulse withstand voltage, durable polycarbonate construction and at least 500 mating cycles, the CDSHF42 provides an efficient solution for high-density machine and control wiring.
