Why Choose the ILME CX02MPBF Female Pneumatic Modular Insert?
The ILME CX02MPBF, also identified as CX 02 MPBF, is a female MIXO pneumatic modular insert designed to accommodate two removable metal pneumatic contacts within an ILME heavy-duty modular connector assembly. Developed for larger pneumatic lines, the module provides two contact seats for 8 mm and 10 mm tubing, making it suitable for compressed-air connections in industrial machinery and automation equipment.
The CX02MPBF occupies two MIXO modules and accepts dedicated ILME CX MP metal pneumatic contacts, which are ordered separately. Compatible contact options include hose-barb and quick-fitting designs, while female contacts are available with or without a shut-off valve. The module supports pneumatic systems operating at pressures up to 10 bar when used with clean, dry compressed air.
Manufactured from self-extinguishing thermoplastic material with a UL 94 V-0 flammability rating, the CX02MPBF is designed for operation from -40 °C to +80 °C. Its modular design allows pneumatic circuits to be combined alongside electrical power, signal and data modules within the same configurable ILME MIXO connector system.

Flexible Pneumatic Connectivity for Industrial Automation
The ILME MIXO system allows pneumatic connections to be incorporated alongside electrical power, signal and data circuits within a single heavy-duty connector assembly. The CX02MPBF is specifically designed for larger 8 mm and 10 mm pneumatic lines, providing two removable metal contact positions while retaining the flexibility of the modular MIXO architecture.
Compatible metal contacts can be selected for hose-barb or quick-fitting tube attachment, and different tube diameters may be installed within the same module. For reliable operation, the pneumatic supply should use suitably filtered and dehydrated clean, dry compressed air, and the appropriate ILME coding and guiding pins should be used when assembling pneumatic MIXO modules.
Typical Applications
- Industrial pneumatic machinery.
- Factory automation and production equipment.
- Robotic and automated manufacturing systems.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Compressed-air distribution between detachable machine sections.
- Hybrid MIXO assemblies combining pneumatic, electrical and data connections.
