Why Choose the ILME CMEF03T Female Insert?

The ILME CMEF03T is a robust female industrial connector insert designed for combined power and auxiliary connections in machinery, automation and control equipment. The insert provides 3 main poles plus protective earth (3P+PE) and 2 auxiliary poles, allowing power and supplementary control or signalling circuits to be incorporated within one compact detachable connector.

Rated at 16 A on the main contacts, the CMEF03T uses proven screw terminal connection technology for straightforward and dependable field wiring. The female contact arrangement mates with the corresponding compatible male insert, creating a secure multipole interface for industrial equipment that requires both main and auxiliary electrical circuits.

The combination of three main contacts, protective earth and two auxiliary contacts makes the CMEF03T particularly useful where a conventional 3-pole connection also requires additional control, monitoring or interlocking signals. Its industrial connector construction supports reliable installation and maintenance in machinery, production equipment and factory automation systems.

Key Advantages

  • Combines 3 main poles + PE + 2 auxiliary poles in one connector insert.
  • 16 A main contact rating for industrial power and control applications.
  • Female connection for mating with the corresponding compatible male insert.
  • Screw terminal technology provides straightforward and secure conductor termination.
  • Two auxiliary contacts allow supplementary control, signalling or interlocking circuits.
  • Reduces the need for separate connectors by combining main and auxiliary circuits in one assembly.

Key Features

  • ILME CME series industrial connector insert.
  • Female contact configuration.
  • 3 main poles + protective earth.
  • 2 additional auxiliary poles.
  • 16 A rated current for the main contacts.
  • Screw terminal connection.
  • Designed for detachable industrial power and auxiliary circuits.
  • Suitable for compatible ILME industrial connector housings and hoods.

Reliable Power and Auxiliary Connectivity in One Insert

Industrial machinery frequently requires more than a basic power connection. Auxiliary circuits can be used for functions such as control signals, status monitoring, interlocks or other supplementary electrical connections. The ILME CMEF03T accommodates these requirements by combining three main poles, protective earth and two auxiliary positions within one industrial connector insert.

Screw termination makes the CMEF03T practical for installation and maintenance using conventional wiring methods. When installed in a compatible ILME enclosure and correctly mated with the corresponding male connector, it creates a robust detachable interface that can simplify machine assembly, commissioning, servicing and equipment replacement.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial machinery and factory automation systems.
  • Three-phase equipment requiring auxiliary control connections.
  • Motor and drive connections with supplementary circuits.
  • Control panels and electrical cabinets.
  • Production, processing and packaging machinery.
  • OEM equipment requiring combined power, control and signalling connections.
