CTSEM16R Ilme Male wedge insert right 16 pole and earth 16 amp spring
ILME CTSEM16R is a right-side mounting CTSE series 16-pole plus protective earth male connector insert rated at 16 A and 500 V, with an incorporated terminal block and spring terminals for 0.14–2.5 mm² conductors in size 77.27 assemblies.
Why Choose the ILME CTSEM16R Male Wedge Insert?
The ILME CTSEM16R is a 16-pole + protective earth male connector insert from the ILME CTSE series, designed for reliable detachable connections in industrial machinery, automation and control systems. Featuring an incorporated terminal block, right-side mounting and spring terminal connections, it combines accessible wiring with secure conductor termination.
Rated at 16 A and 500 V with a 6 kV rated impulse withstand voltage, the CTSEM16R is suitable for demanding power, control and auxiliary circuits. Its spring terminals accept conductors from 0.14–2.5 mm² or 26–14 AWG, while turned silver-plated contacts provide dependable electrical performance.
The CTSEM16R is manufactured in ILME size 77.27 and is specifically configured for right-side mounting. The insert provides IP20 protection without an enclosure and can form part of an IP66/IP69 connector assembly when correctly installed within a suitable compatible ILME enclosure.
