Reliable Connections for Industrial Equipment
Crimp connector inserts such as the ILME CQM 08E provide reliable electrical connections by mechanically compressing the contact onto the conductor. When correctly assembled with compatible ILME crimp contacts and tooling, this method produces a low-resistance connection with excellent resistance to vibration and mechanical stress.
The CQ series is designed for compact industrial connector applications where multiple circuits must be connected and disconnected efficiently. When installed in a suitable ILME hood or housing, the CQM 08E forms part of a robust connector system suitable for machinery, control panels and industrial automation equipment.
