Why Choose the ILME CX1.6VC Female Pneumatic Contact?
The ILME CX1.6VC is a female pneumatic contact with an integrated closing valve, designed for transferring compressed air or other compatible fluids through ILME modular connector assemblies. Suitable for tubing with a 1.6 mm internal diameter, it provides a compact pneumatic connection for industrial machinery, automation equipment and modular machine interfaces.
As part of the ILME CX / MIXO modular connector system, the CX1.6VC is designed for use in compatible CX pneumatic modules, including CX 03 P. The modular system enables pneumatic connections to be incorporated alongside electrical, signal and other services within a single heavy-duty connector assembly, helping simplify machine installation and maintenance.
The CX1.6VC incorporates a closing valve and is intended to mate with the corresponding male pneumatic contact without a closing valve. ILME CX pneumatic modules are designed for pneumatic circuits at pressures of up to 8 bar, making this contact well suited to compact industrial compressed-air connections.

Reliable Pneumatic Connectivity for Industrial Machinery
ILME MIXO modular connectors provide a flexible way to combine different connection technologies within one industrial connector. Pneumatic contacts such as the CX1.6VC allow compressed-air lines to form part of the same modular interface as electrical power and signal connections, reducing the number of separate connectors required between machine sections.
The integrated closing valve makes the CX1.6VC particularly useful where the pneumatic line needs to close automatically when the connector is disconnected. When paired with the appropriate male contact and installed in a compatible CX pneumatic module, it provides a practical solution for machinery that requires frequent connection, disconnection or servicing.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery pneumatic connections.
- Factory automation and production equipment.
- Robotic and material-handling systems.
- Modular machine and production-line interfaces.
- Combined electrical and pneumatic connector assemblies.
- OEM machinery and automated manufacturing systems.
