Why Choose the Ilme CKSHM03 SQUICH Male Insert?

The Ilme CKSHM03 is a compact male industrial connector insert with 3 poles plus protective earth (3P+PE), featuring Ilme's tool-less SQUICH® spring terminal connection. Part of the CKSH series and designed for the 21.21 size format, it provides fast, secure conductor termination for machinery, automation and industrial control applications.

Rated at 10 A and 400 V, the CKSHM03 has a rated impulse withstand voltage of 4 kV at pollution degree 3. Its SQUICH® terminals accommodate conductors from 0.14 to 2.5 mm², equivalent to AWG 26–14, enabling wiring without conventional screw-terminal tightening.

The insert uses turned silver-plated male contacts and a polycarbonate insulating body. With an ambient temperature range of -40 to +125 °C, insulation resistance of at least 10 GΩ and a mechanical life of at least 500 mating cycles, the CKSHM03 is engineered for dependable service in professional industrial connector assemblies.

Key Advantages

  • Compact 3-pole plus earth male connector insert.
  • SQUICH® tool-less spring terminals simplify conductor termination.
  • Rated at 10 A and 400 V for industrial connections.
  • Accepts conductors from 0.14 to 2.5 mm² or AWG 26–14.
  • Turned silver-plated contacts provide reliable electrical performance.
  • Mechanical life of at least 500 mating cycles supports repeated connection and disconnection.

Key Features

  • Ilme CKSH series male insert.
  • 3 poles plus protective earth (3P+PE).
  • SQUICH® spring terminal connection without tools.
  • 10 A rated current.
  • 400 V rated voltage.
  • 4 kV rated impulse withstand voltage.
  • Pollution degree 3.
  • 600 V UL/CSA rated voltage.
  • Compact size 21.21 format.
  • Operating temperature range of -40 to +125 °C.

Fast Tool-Less Industrial Connectivity with SQUICH®

Ilme's SQUICH® technology uses spring-clamp terminals with actuator buttons to simplify conductor termination. The CKSHM03 can therefore be wired without conventional terminal screws, helping reduce installation time while providing a consistent spring-force electrical connection for industrial machinery and control wiring.

The 3P+PE configuration provides three current-carrying male contacts together with a dedicated protective-earth connection. When installed in a suitable Ilme size 21.21 enclosure, the CKSHM03 forms part of a compact detachable connector system capable of providing high ingress protection for demanding industrial installations.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial machinery and automation systems.
  • Control panel and machine interfaces.
  • Motor and actuator connections.
  • Industrial power and control wiring.
  • Production and process equipment.
  • OEM machinery requiring compact 3P+PE connections.
