Why Choose the ILME CMSHF03 SQUICH Female Insert?
The ILME CMSHF03 is a high-performance female multipole connector insert designed for industrial power and control connections requiring fast, reliable conductor termination. Part of the ILME CMSH 16 A series, it provides 3 main poles plus protective earth and 2 auxiliary poles, allowing power and auxiliary circuits to be combined within a single heavy-duty connector assembly.
The CMSHF03 features ILME's SQUICH® tool-free spring terminal connection, enabling conductors to be terminated without conventional screw tightening or crimping tools. The spring-clamp system accepts conductors from 0.14–2.5 mm² and provides consistent contact pressure, helping simplify installation and maintenance while delivering dependable electrical connections in industrial environments.
With a rated current of 16 A and rated voltage of 830 V, the CMSHF03 is suitable for demanding machinery and automation applications. Its female silver-plated contacts and size 57.27 format make it suitable for compatible ILME heavy-duty connector housings and hoods.
