Why Choose the ILME CQEYF46 Female AXYR® Connector Insert?

The ILME CQEYF46 is a high-density female multipole connector insert designed for fast, reliable electrical connections in industrial machinery, automation equipment and control systems. Part of the ILME CQEY series, it provides 46 poles plus protective earth (PE) and features the innovative AXYR® high-density spring push-in connection for tool-free conductor termination.

The AXYR® connection system uses spring-clamp technology with actuator buttons, allowing conductors to be connected quickly without traditional screw or crimp termination. This simplifies panel and machine wiring while maintaining secure electrical contact and dependable performance in applications exposed to vibration and repeated maintenance.

With a rated current of 16 A, rated voltage of 500 V and connector size 104.27, the CQEYF46 provides a compact solution for high-density power, control and auxiliary connections. Its integral turned silver-plated female contacts eliminate the need to purchase and install separate crimp contacts.
