Why Choose the ILME CNEF24TN Female Insert?

The ILME CNEF24TN, manufacturer reference CNEF 24 TN, is a CNE series female multipole connector insert with screw terminal connections, designed for reliable power, control and signal wiring in heavy-duty industrial connector assemblies. It provides 24 poles + PE, numbered 25–48, and is intended for use as the second insert section within a complete 48-pole + PE connector configuration.

Rated at 16 A and 500 V with a 6 kV rated impulse withstand voltage, the CNEF24TN is suitable for demanding machinery, automation and industrial electrical applications. Its screw terminals accept conductors from 0.50–4.00 mm² or 20–12 AWG, while the supplied terminal plate also makes the insert suitable for non-prepared conductors.

The CNEF24TN features turned silver-plated female contacts and a self-extinguishing polycarbonate insulating body with a UL 94 V-0 flammability rating. The insert provides IP20 protection without an enclosure and can form part of an IP65/IP66 connector assembly when correctly installed in a suitable ILME enclosure.

Key Advantages

  • Provides 24 poles + protective earth for high-density industrial connections.
  • Pole numbering 25–48 identifies the insert as the second section of a 48-pole + PE configuration.
  • Rated at 16 A and 500 V for industrial power, control and signal circuits.
  • Screw terminal connection provides secure and familiar conductor termination.
  • Accepts conductors from 0.50–4.00 mm² or 20–12 AWG.
  • Turned silver-plated contacts provide dependable electrical conductivity.
  • Mechanical durability of at least 500 mating cycles.
  • Wide -40 °C to +125 °C operating temperature range.

Key Features

Reliable Screw Terminal Connections for Industrial Multipole Systems

Screw terminal inserts provide a robust and widely used method of terminating industrial connector wiring. Conductors are secured directly at the insert using screw terminals, eliminating the requirement for separate crimp contacts while allowing connections to be inspected and serviced using standard tools.

The CNEF24TN combines this proven termination method with a high-density 24-pole + PE arrangement and 16 A contact rating. Its 25–48 numbering allows it to complement the corresponding 1–24 insert in a 48-pole + PE assembly, providing an organised solution for applications requiring numerous detachable electrical circuits within a single heavy-duty connector system.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial machinery and automation systems.
  • High-density power, control and signal connections.
  • Machine-to-panel electrical interfaces.
  • Robotics and automated production equipment.
  • Motor, drive and machine control systems.
  • Material handling and conveyor equipment.
  • Industrial control cabinets and switchgear.
  • OEM machinery and modular equipment.
