• Available in 3 poles + earth (m) and 4 poles + earth configurations.
• Female (CKSF) and male (CKSM) inserts with spring terminal connections.
• Wire size range: 0.14 to 2.5 mm² (AWG 26 to 14), usable section up to 1.5 mm² (AWG 16).
• Rear top wire entry for easier wiring.
• Certifications: UL and CSA (pending for some).
• Enclosure sizes: insulating (pages 153-154), metallic (pages 155-156), aggressive environments (page 157), EMC (page 158).

2. CQ 12 Poles Crimp Connection Inserts

• Rated for 10A, 400/690V, 6kV impulse voltage, compliant with EN 61984.
• Available as female (CQF 12) and male (CQM 12) inserts with crimp contacts.
• Contacts are silver or gold plated, suitable for wire sizes 0.14 to 2.5 mm² (AWG 26 to 14).
• Contacts must be ordered separately; crimping instructions and tools detailed on pages 296, 300, 304, 306, 308.
• Includes seals and screws ensuring IP66/IP67 protection.
• Coding pins (CR Q12) allow 16 different mating combinations to prevent incorrect coupling.
• Accessories include coding pins and bridges for delta/star motor connections.

3. Coding Pins and Accessories

• Coding pins (CR CPQ, CR CP, CR Q12) prevent incorrect mating between connectors of different series or functions.
• Multiple coding pins can be combined to create numerous unique mating configurations.
• Recommended to use coding pins even when not strictly required to reduce connector movement and contact damage, complying with DIN 43 652 standard limiting angular fluctuation to ±5°.

4. Bridges for Delta and Star Motor Connections

• Bridges with female 10A silver-plated contacts for delta (CR BDE) and star (CR BST) connections.
• Delta bridge: 2 contacts; star bridge: 3 contacts.
• Installation involves cutting and stripping wires, crimping contacts with CRPZ pliers and CRD matrix, applying heat-shrink tubes at 90-100°C, and inserting bridges as per wiring diagrams.
• Suitable for wire cross-sections 1.5 to 2.5 mm² (AWG 16-14).

5. Protective Hoods and Enclosures

• Inclined hoods with 2 levers available for side and top wire entry, compatible with enclosure size “104.27”.
• Central lever hoods also available with top or side entry, high construction.
• Hoods designed for various insert series including CD, CDD, CQE, CN, CCE, CNE, CSS, CMSE, CMCE, CX, and MIXO.
• CZ and MZ enclosures available in standard versions for sizes “49.16” and “66.16”, with single lever hoods and top entry options.
• Dimensions and part numbers provided for ordering; dimensions are indicative and subject to change.

6. General Notes and Recommendations

• Dimensions indicated throughout are non-binding and may change without notice.
• For maximum current load and detailed electrical characteristics, refer to load curve sections (pages 28 and 30).
• Stripping lengths and wire preparation details are on page 13.
• Use of coding pins is recommended to avoid damage and ensure correct mating.
• Products comply with relevant standards including EN 61984 and DIN 43 652.
• Certifications include UL and CSA, with some pending.
