Why Choose the Ilme CQM04/2 Male Insert?
The Ilme CQM04/2 is a compact mixed-contact male multipole connector insert designed to combine high-current power and auxiliary circuits within a single industrial connector. Part of the Ilme CQ series, it provides 4 main poles plus 2 auxiliary poles and protective earth, making it an efficient solution for machinery requiring both power and control connections.
The CQM04/2 uses crimp contact termination, providing secure, repeatable and vibration-resistant electrical connections when assembled with the appropriate Ilme male crimp contacts. Its mixed-contact design allows higher-current power circuits and lower-current auxiliary circuits to share one detachable connector, reducing wiring complexity and the number of separate interfaces required.
The four main contact positions are rated up to 40 A, while the two auxiliary positions are rated at 10 A. This combination makes the CQM04/2 particularly suitable for motors, drives, industrial machinery and automation equipment where power delivery must be accompanied by control, monitoring or signalling circuits.

Combined Power and Auxiliary Connectivity
Mixed-contact inserts provide an efficient way to carry circuits with different electrical requirements through one detachable industrial connector. The Ilme CQM04/2 combines four higher-current power positions with two auxiliary positions and protective earth, allowing machine builders to consolidate power and control wiring into a single connector assembly.
Crimp termination supports reliable electrical and mechanical performance in industrial environments, including equipment subject to vibration and repeated servicing. When assembled with the appropriate contacts, corresponding female insert and compatible Ilme enclosure, the CQM04/2 forms part of a robust heavy-duty connection system.
