Why Choose the Ilme CXF4/2 Female Connector Insert?
The Ilme CXF4/2 is a robust female multipole connector insert from the ILME CX series, designed to combine high-current power and auxiliary connections within a single heavy-duty industrial connector. It provides 4 power poles plus PE rated at 80 A together with 2 auxiliary poles rated at 16 A, making it particularly suitable for machinery requiring both power and control circuits through one connector assembly.
The main power contacts are rated at 80 A, 830 V, while the two auxiliary contacts are rated at 16 A, 400 V. Screw terminal connections provide straightforward conductor termination without separate crimp contacts, while turned silver-plated copper-alloy contacts deliver reliable electrical performance in demanding industrial environments.
Designed for ILME size 77.27 enclosures, the CXF4/2 uses a self-extinguishing polycarbonate insulating body and operates across a temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C. Its combination of high-current and auxiliary contacts makes it an efficient solution for motors, machinery and industrial equipment where power and control circuits need to be connected and disconnected together.

Combined Power and Control Connectivity for Industrial Machinery
The Ilme CXF4/2 enables high-current power conductors and lower-current auxiliary circuits to be incorporated into the same detachable heavy-duty connector. This arrangement can simplify machine wiring by reducing the number of separate connectors required between motors, machinery modules, control panels and other industrial equipment.
Its four 80 A power contacts are suitable for substantial electrical loads, while the two 16 A auxiliary contacts can accommodate associated control or auxiliary circuits. Screw terminals simplify field wiring, while the silver-plated turned contacts and durable insulating body provide the electrical and mechanical performance required for repeated industrial connection cycles.
