Why Choose the Ilme CTF40L Female Insert?
The Ilme CTF40L is a high-density 40-pole plus earth female connector insert designed for industrial machinery, automation systems and electrical control equipment. Part of the Ilme CT series, this size 77.27 insert features screw terminal connections, an incorporated terminal block and a left-side mounting configuration for compatible Ilme industrial connector assemblies.
The CTF40L is rated at 10 A and 250 V, with a rated impulse withstand voltage of 4 kV. Its 40 electrical poles plus protective earth provide a compact solution for applications requiring a large number of control, signal or auxiliary circuits to pass through a single detachable industrial connector.
Designed for conductors from 0.75–2.50 mm² (AWG 18–14), the CTF40L uses turned silver-plated contacts for dependable electrical performance. The insert itself provides IP20 protection without an enclosure, while installation in a suitable Ilme enclosure can provide IP66/IP69 protection for demanding industrial environments.
