Why Choose the Ilme CSAHF10 SQUICH® Female Insert?
The Ilme CSAHF10 is a 10-pole + PE female connector insert from the Ilme CSAH series, featuring SQUICH® spring terminal connection with actuator buttons for fast conductor termination without dedicated wiring tools. Rated at 16 A and 250 V under EN 61984 characteristics, it is designed for dependable multipole power and control connections in industrial machinery and automation equipment.
The CSAHF10 uses Ilme's SQUICH® spring connection technology, allowing stripped conductors to be inserted into the terminal and secured by pressing the individual actuator button. This eliminates conventional terminal tightening during wiring while providing a vibration-resistant spring connection, helping reduce installation and maintenance time in control panels and machine-building applications.
Designed in the compact 49.16 size, the CSAHF10 accepts conductor cross-sections from 0.14–2.5 mm² and provides 10 female poles plus protective earth (PE). Its self-extinguishing thermoplastic construction, silver-plated contacts and operating temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C make it suitable for demanding industrial connector assemblies.

Fast SQUICH® Spring Connection for Industrial Wiring
Ilme SQUICH® technology simplifies connector wiring by combining spring terminals with integrated actuator buttons. The stripped conductor is inserted deeply into its terminal seat and the actuator is pressed to close the spring connection, eliminating the repetitive screw tightening associated with conventional screw-terminal inserts.
The CSAHF10 combines this rapid termination system with a compact 10-pole + PE format. Conductors can also be released for maintenance by operating the actuator with a suitable flat-blade screwdriver, making the insert particularly useful for machine builders and industrial installers who require fast initial wiring together with straightforward future servicing.
