Why Choose the Ilme CKA03ILSA Bulkhead Mounting Housing?
The Ilme CKA03ILSA is a compact and robust metal bulkhead mounting connector housing with self-closing cover designed for industrial multipole connections. Part of the Ilme CKA series, this enclosure uses the compact size 21.21 format and is specifically designed to accommodate compatible male connector inserts.
Manufactured from durable zinc die-cast metal, the CKA03ILSA provides reliable mechanical protection for connector interfaces mounted on machinery, control panels and industrial equipment. Its single galvanised steel rigid lever provides secure connector locking, while the integrated self-closing metal cover helps protect the connector interface whenever the mating connector is removed.
The CKA03ILSA provides IP44 protection in its standard configuration and can achieve IP66, IP67 and IP69 protection when correctly assembled with the appropriate Ilme CKR 65 sealing kit. With an operating temperature range from -40 °C to +125 °C and a mechanical life of at least 500 mating cycles, it is well suited to demanding machinery and automation applications.
