Why Choose the Ilme CKMD04 Gold-Plated Male Connector Insert?
The Ilme CKMD04 is a compact male multipole connector insert with gold-plated contacts designed for reliable power, control and signal connections in industrial machinery and automation equipment. Part of the Ilme CKD series, it provides 4 poles plus protective earth (4P+PE) within the compact size 21.21 connector format.
The CKMD04 uses proven screw terminal connections, allowing conductors to be terminated directly without separate crimp contacts or specialist crimping tools. Its male contacts are gold plated, providing a high-quality contact interface particularly suited to applications where dependable electrical continuity and resistance to contact-surface degradation are important.
Rated at 10 A and 230/400 V according to EN 61984 characteristics, with a 4 kV rated impulse withstand voltage and pollution degree 3, the CKMD04 is suitable for industrial power, auxiliary and control circuits. The screw terminals accept conductors from 0.75–2.5 mm², while the compact size 21.21 construction integrates with compatible Ilme connector hoods and housings.
