Why Choose the ILME CK03CXAN Plastic Cover for Male Inserts?
The ILME CK03CXAN, manufacturer designation CK 03 CXAN, is a compact plastic protective cover with a single locking lever designed for male inserts in ILME size 21.21 industrial connector assemblies. Part of the ILME CK compact enclosure series, this jet-black cover provides a practical way to protect exposed connector interfaces when machinery or equipment is disconnected.
Designed specifically for male inserts, the CK03CXAN incorporates a single polyamide locking lever together with a retaining loop manufactured from nylon and galvanised brass. The retaining loop helps keep the cover attached to the connector assembly when removed, reducing the risk of the protective cover becoming misplaced during operation or maintenance.
The CK03CXAN provides IP44 protection in its standard configuration and can achieve IP66, IP67 and IP69 protection when used with the compatible ILME CKR 65 gasket and screw kit. Its compact size 21.21 construction, RAL 9005 black finish and wide -40 °C to +125 °C operating temperature range make it suitable for demanding machinery, automation and industrial electrical installations.
