CTM40R Ilme Male wedge insert right 40 pole and earth 16 amp screw
Ilme CTM40R is a size 77.27 right-side male CT series connector insert with 40 poles plus PE, a 10 A 250 V rating, screw terminals and an incorporated terminal block for high-density industrial connections.
Why Choose the Ilme CTM40R Male Wedge Insert?
The Ilme CTM40R is a 40-pole + PE male industrial connector insert from the Ilme CT series, designed for high-density multipole connections in machinery, automation and electrical control systems. It features dependable screw terminal connections, an incorporated terminal block and a right-side mounting configuration for compatible CT-series connector assemblies.
Ilme manufacturer data specifies the CTM40R at 10 A and 250 V, with a 4 kV rated impulse withstand voltage and pollution degree 3. The screw terminals accommodate conductors from 0.75–2.5 mm² (AWG 18–14), making the insert suitable for high-density control, signalling and auxiliary wiring within industrial equipment.
Designed in size 77.27, the CTM40R combines 40 male contacts with protective earth in a compact wedge-style arrangement. Turned silver-plated contacts, polycarbonate insulation, a wide -40 °C to +125 °C operating temperature range and a mechanical life of at least 500 mating cycles support dependable service in demanding industrial installations.
