Why Choose the Ilme CDDM72N Male Insert?
The Ilme CDDM72N is a high-density 72-pole plus earth male connector insert designed for reliable multipole electrical connections in industrial machinery, automation systems and control equipment. Part of the proven Ilme CDD series, it combines compact construction with crimp termination for applications requiring a large number of circuits within a single heavy-duty rectangular connector assembly.
Rated at 10 A and 250 V, the CDDM72N is designed as the second 72-pole insert in compatible 144-pole arrangements, with contact positions 73–144 plus protective earth. Its high contact density makes it particularly useful for complex control, signal and auxiliary power wiring where minimising connector space and simplifying equipment installation are important.
The crimp connection system supports conductor sizes from 0.14–2.5 mm² when used with the appropriate Ilme CD male crimp contacts. With a rated impulse withstand voltage of 4 kV, a wide operating temperature range and robust polycarbonate construction, the CDDM72N provides dependable connectivity for demanding industrial installations.

Reliable High-Density Connections for Industrial Equipment
High-density multipole inserts such as the Ilme CDDM72N allow many individual electrical circuits to be routed through a single detachable connector assembly. This simplifies installation and servicing of complex machinery while reducing the number of separate connectors required between machine sections, control cabinets and modular equipment.
The CDDM72N uses replaceable crimp contacts, allowing conductors to be terminated using the appropriate Ilme crimping equipment before insertion into the connector body. When combined with the corresponding CDD insert and compatible Ilme enclosure, it can form part of a 144-pole interface for reliable high-density industrial wiring.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery and production equipment.
- Factory automation and control systems.
- High-density control and signal wiring.
- Machine-to-machine electrical interfaces.
- Control panels and electrical cabinets.
- Robotics and automated production systems.
- Conveyor and material handling equipment.
- OEM machinery and modular equipment assemblies.
