Why Choose the Ilme CSSM24 Male 24 Pole + PE Insert?
The Ilme CSSM24 is a high-performance 24-pole + PE male industrial connector insert from the Ilme CSS series. Designed for demanding machinery and automation applications, it combines a 16 A current rating with Ilme's dual spring terminal connection for secure and dependable conductor termination.
Unlike conventional screw-terminal inserts, the CSSM24 uses a dual spring terminal system to maintain reliable contact pressure on connected conductors. This makes it well suited to industrial installations where vibration, repeated maintenance and long-term connection reliability are important considerations.
The CSSM24 provides 24 poles plus protective earth in the standard 104.27 size. It is rated at 16 A and 500 V, withstands impulses up to 6 kV and accepts conductor cross-sections from 0.14–2.50 mm², making it a versatile male insert for compatible Ilme heavy-duty connector assemblies.

Reliable Dual Spring Termination for Industrial Connections
The dual spring terminal system used by the Ilme CSSM24 provides a secure alternative to traditional screw-terminal termination. Spring pressure maintains the electrical connection to the conductor, helping provide consistent performance in machinery where vibration, temperature changes and repeated operating cycles can place additional demands on connector terminations.
The CSSM24 combines this termination technology with turned silver-plated contacts, an insulation resistance of at least 10 GΩ and contact resistance of no more than 3 mΩ. Its polycarbonate insulating body operates across a temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C, supporting reliable service in demanding industrial environments.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery and machine building.
- Factory automation and production equipment.
- Electrical control systems and cabinets.
- Robotics and automated manufacturing systems.
- Material handling and conveyor equipment.
- High-density multipole power and control connections.
