Why Choose the ILME CTM16L Male Insert?
The ILME CTM16L is a robust male multipole wedge insert designed for dependable electrical connections in industrial machinery, automation equipment and control systems. Part of the ILME CT series, this left-hand insert combines a high-density 16-pole plus protective earth (PE) configuration with secure screw-terminal termination.
Rated at 16 A, the CTM16L provides a practical solution for carrying multiple power, control and auxiliary circuits through a single detachable industrial connector. Its screw terminals allow conductors to be securely terminated without crimping equipment, supporting straightforward assembly, servicing and field maintenance.
The left-hand wedge configuration enables the CTM16L to be incorporated into compatible ILME modular connector arrangements alongside complementary inserts. Its durable insulating body and male contact arrangement make it well suited to machine building and industrial installations where reliable multipole connectivity and efficient use of connector space are required.
