Why Choose the Ilme CKAXS03I EMC Bulkhead Housing?
The Ilme CKAXS03I is a compact metal bulkhead mounting housing with a stainless steel locking lever, designed for Ilme size 21.21 industrial multipole connector assemblies. Part of the Ilme EMC series, it provides a conductive enclosure solution for applications where electromagnetic compatibility and dependable connector protection are important.
Manufactured from zinc die-cast metal, the CKAXS03I features a stainless steel lever and a conductive elastomer gasket. This combination supports effective electromagnetic shielding through compatible connector assemblies while providing a robust mechanical interface for machinery, automation and control equipment.
The housing has no cable entry because it is designed for bulkhead mounting directly to an equipment or enclosure panel. It provides IP44 protection as standard and can achieve IP66 / IP67 / IP69 when correctly assembled with the appropriate CKR 65 sealing kit and compatible components.

Compact Electromagnetic Shielding for Industrial Connections
Industrial equipment containing variable-speed drives, motors, switching devices and high-frequency electronics can generate electromagnetic interference that may affect nearby control and communication circuits. The conductive zinc die-cast body and conductive gasket of the Ilme CKAXS03I make it suitable for connector assemblies designed to maintain electromagnetic shielding through the equipment interface.
Its bulkhead-mounted configuration provides a compact connection point directly through a machine or enclosure panel, while the stainless steel lever securely locks a compatible mating hood in position. Combined with suitable Ilme size 21.21 inserts and EMC-compatible accessories, the CKAXS03I provides a durable connection solution for demanding industrial environments.
Typical Applications
- EMC-sensitive industrial connector assemblies.
- Variable-speed drive and motor systems.
- Industrial machinery and production equipment.
- Factory automation systems.
- Electrical control panels and cabinets.
