Why Choose the Ilme CSAHF16 SQUICH® Female Insert?
The Ilme CSAHF16 is a 16-pole + PE female connector insert featuring Ilme SQUICH® spring terminal technology with integrated actuator buttons. Designed for industrial multipole connector systems, it provides rapid conductor termination without the repetitive screw tightening required by conventional screw-terminal inserts, making it particularly suitable for machinery, automation and control applications.
The SQUICH® connection system uses spring terminals that are operated by individual actuator buttons. Once a correctly stripped conductor has been inserted into the terminal, the actuator is pressed to establish the electrical connection. This provides a fast, secure and vibration-resistant termination method while simplifying assembly and subsequent maintenance of industrial connector systems.
With 16 female poles plus protective earth (PE), a rated current of 16 A and conductor capacity from 0.14–2.5 mm², the CSAHF16 provides a versatile interface for power, control and auxiliary circuits. Its self-extinguishing thermoplastic insulation and silver-plated contacts support dependable service in demanding industrial environments.

Fast SQUICH® Spring Connection for Industrial Wiring
Ilme SQUICH® technology is designed to reduce the time required to wire multipole industrial connectors. Instead of tightening individual terminal screws, the installer inserts the prepared conductor into the appropriate terminal and operates the integrated actuator, allowing the spring mechanism to establish and maintain the electrical connection.
For machine builders and automation engineers, this approach can simplify both initial assembly and later servicing. The CSAHF16 combines the SQUICH® termination system with 16 female contacts plus PE, providing a compact multipole interface for connecting power, control and signalling circuits between machinery modules and electrical equipment.
