Why Choose the Ilme CX3.0MPQF Female Metal Pneumatic Contact?
The Ilme CX3.0MPQF is a female metal pneumatic contact designed for compressed-air connections within Ilme MIXO modular connector systems. It features a straight quick-fitting connection for pneumatic tubing with a 3 mm outer diameter, providing a convenient push-in tube connection for industrial machinery and automation applications.
The CX3.0MPQF is manufactured from nickel-plated brass and is designed without a shut-off valve. This configuration provides an unrestricted pneumatic path and is suitable for installations where automatic isolation of the air supply is not required when the connector is disconnected.
Designed for compatible Ilme MIXO pneumatic modules, the CX3.0MPQF can be used alongside other pneumatic contacts to create configurable compressed-air interfaces. Ilme specifies MIXO pneumatic contacts for clean, dry compressed air at pressures up to 10 bar, with an operating temperature range of -40 °C to +80 °C.

Quick-Fitting Pneumatic Connectivity for Industrial Systems
Ilme MIXO pneumatic modules allow compressed-air circuits to be incorporated into modular industrial connector assemblies alongside electrical power, control, signal and data connections. This can reduce the number of separate machine interfaces required and simplify installation, maintenance and equipment replacement.
The CX3.0MPQF uses a quick-fitting connection for 3 mm OD tubing, allowing the pneumatic tube to be pushed directly into the contact rather than fitted over a hose barb. Ilme's pneumatic system also allows contacts for different supported tube diameters to be installed within the same compatible modular unit, providing flexibility when configuring machine pneumatic connections.
Typical Applications
- Industrial compressed-air systems.
- Factory automation and production machinery.
- Pneumatic actuators and cylinders.
- Robotics and automated manufacturing equipment.
- Machine tools and processing equipment.
- Control systems requiring detachable pneumatic connections.
- Equipment combining electrical and pneumatic services in one interface.
- Ilme MIXO modular pneumatic connector assemblies.
