Why Choose the Ilme CKX03I Plastic Bulkhead Mounting Housing?
The Ilme CKX03I is a compact thermoplastic bulkhead mounting housing designed for industrial multipole connector installations. Part of the Ilme CKX series, it uses the compact size 21.21 format and provides a fixed panel-mounted interface for compatible Ilme connector inserts.
The CKX03I combines an insulating thermoplastic housing with a durable stainless steel locking lever, providing a lightweight alternative to metallic connector enclosures while retaining secure mechanical coupling. Its light grey construction is suitable for machine building, control panels, automation equipment and other applications requiring compact detachable electrical connections.
Designed without a cable entry, the CKX03I mounts directly to a panel or equipment surface. It provides IP44 protection as standard and can achieve IP66, IP67 and IP69 protection when correctly assembled using the Ilme CKR 65 gasket and screw kit with compatible connector components.

Reliable Compact Connector Protection for Industrial Equipment
Bulkhead mounting housings provide a fixed connection point on machinery, control panels and equipment enclosures, allowing the corresponding cable-mounted connector to be connected and disconnected without disturbing internal wiring. The compact size 21.21 CKX03I is particularly useful where available panel space is limited.
Its thermoplastic body provides an insulating enclosure while the stainless steel lever securely locks the mating connector in position. For installations requiring increased resistance to dust and water ingress, the standard IP44 assembly can be upgraded to IP66, IP67 and IP69 using the appropriate Ilme CKR 65 sealing kit and compatible components.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery and machine building.
- Electrical control panels and cabinets.
- Automation and production equipment.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Material handling and conveyor systems.
- OEM equipment requiring compact detachable multipole connections.
