Why Choose the ILME CQF17 Female Connector Insert?
The ILME CQF17 is a compact female multipole connector insert designed for reliable electrical connections in industrial machinery, automation equipment and control systems. Part of the ILME CQ series, it provides 17 poles plus protective earth (PE) in the compact size 32.13 format and uses separate crimp contacts for secure conductor termination.
Designed for ILME rectangular multipole connector assemblies, the CQF17 combines high contact density with dependable electrical performance. Its crimp connection system supports conductors from 0.14–2.5 mm² (AWG 26–14), with compatible female crimp contacts ordered separately and fitted into the insert after termination.
With a rated current of 10 A and rated voltage of 160 V, the CQF17 is suitable for multi-circuit control, signal and auxiliary connections in industrial equipment. Its compact 32.13 size allows 17 circuits plus protective earth to be accommodated within a space-efficient heavy-duty connector assembly.
